I have been using this sentence since at least 1961 and always in the form I gave. It is possible that I got it aurally rather than in written form and misheard, but no one has called me on it before. I don't remember where I heard it but presumably either from Carnap (who had an accent after all) or in a Linguistics class. In any case, what the word actually is makes no significant difference, since, for all we can find out, pywates and pirots are the same things. --- Pierre Abbat wrote: > One of pc's contributions to jboselkei is > "Pywates carulize elatically".
