   Hi, Paul!  Recently you wrote in a message to Ardith Hinton:   
      
   AH>  When I looked up "twit" in THE FREE DICTIONARY I found    
   AH>  quite a lot of stuff you might find useful, including    
   AH>  definitions & synonyms.  In summary... a twit is a    
   AH>  foolish, stupid, annoying, and/or insignificant person.     
   AH>  I'm guessing that is more or less what you were thinking    
   AH>  of here.  :-)   
      
   PQ>  Down here, a 'Twit' was long=known as a "pregnant goldfish".    
      
      
             According to Uncle Google, the idea that a "pregnant goldfish" may   
   be referred to as a "twit" is an urban legend from Australia.   
      
             I see you reversed the order.  Am I missing something?  :-)   
      
      
      
   PQ>  Is that dictionary a revised version of history by   
   PQ>  milennials or one compiled by ignorant new world-ers?  ;)   
      
      
             I cited THE FREE DICTIONARY in this case because it includes   
   listings from various sources & because other people may be able to read it   
   online.  I'm happy with what the authors have to say about the issue.  In   
   addition, it saves me the effort of researching & retyping material from   
   umpteen hard copies.  :-Q
