Yes there were those who were publishing papers 20 years ago, but it was never imposed on students until recently. You can probably look this stuff up, Joe.Quote:

I think purse is old term that doesn't apply for people under 50 years old. I call my wife's thing a purse and she hates it. She insists it's handbag or just bag. She says that purse is a thing old ladies carry.Quote:

My friends and I all call them purses....and we're 15! Some are American and some are British, but that's what we all call them.Quote:

That's why my first character was Jonathan Blade! :) I go for the unusual more than for value, and have a knife called "The Torch" made for display only, that opens into four blades spaced in each corner. I wouldn't argue with it, I can tell you that! :lol:Quote:
