And to some of us, it didn't.

Sic transit gloria mundae.

And to some of us it still does not.

Well done Baggo, I just love your posts on any topic.

Absolutely, Baggo. If those companies did not do what they do, they would be in dereliction of their legal duty to their share-holders. The fault lies with the legal and regulatory framework which allows them to do it.

No, I didn't. For some reason I became sidetracked with the genetive case of the second declension, I think, and so wrote "mundae" when, of course, I should have written "mundi". Difficult to remember these things after so many years innit. Go to the top of the class, vitalstates.

Feeling a bit peckish - think I'll dive into the fridge and see if I can find something to make an ice cream sundi.
