What is "English" anyway?  Most of our words came from _some_ other
langauage.  Would you be suggesting only anglo-saxon derived words
are appropriate for Ruby?   :-)


... Adieu, hope my post was apropos and that I haven't made a faux
pas or some sort of gauche inappropriate critique; of course that
sort of thing would be de rigeur for Usenet and probably inducing of
deja vu.  Well gotta ask my protoge to take the cuisine out of the
microwave, the office is about to head out en masse to catch the
risque matinee du jour.  (I hope there's plenty of double entendre.)
En route, I'll pick up my fiancee - she's a fan of the genre.  With
luck, after the finale, there'll be an encore presentation.


Regards,

agent provocateur?  or enfant terrible?
