  1. Re: asbestos accusations

    I got:

    amosite |?am??s?t|

    noun

    an iron-rich amphibole asbestos, mined in South Africa.

    ORIGIN early 20th cent.: from the initial letters of A sbestos M ines o f S outh Africa + -ite 1 .

    i didn't know that amosite started out as acronym!!

    (i was thinking more on the line of being named after sir amos such-and-such)

  2. My point was just that wife or fiance implies a longer term committment that would infer greater considerations for purchases like this...more of a joint decision with thought of longer term future together. Girlfriend/boyfriend are terms that imply (to me) not necessarily permanent, and there shouldn't be expectations regarding each others purchases. I would hate to see him settle for something less than what he wants if he does not truly think this is a long term relationship.

    hmmm, my BIL and his GF have joint ownership of a 1.2M$ house in the

    bay area. seems pretty committed to me...

  3. I don't know about that; a stylized full-front of the face with those eyes bearing down on you as you reach for the dome handle... stamped in stainless steel...

    I think it'd be cool. I've actually got a picture of it in my head, just not the talent to render it.

    maybe something like this...

    isn't that the logo for the punisher??
