    It was Malizz who contributed that R. It is so swell isn't it? Of course there are a lot more letters in it than in LIAR so if I'm pressed for time I take the short-cut route. But honestly I shall try to make time to use it. Thank you for your reply and Happy Wednesday! :)

    Some years ago, some UK politician (I forget who but I think it was about the first Gulf War) coined the similarly daft, "economical with the truth".

    "Awesome" or not, such flowery phrases are merely euphemisms, but their danger is in confusing genuine ignorance or error, with wilful lie.
