Hi again, just finished reading my pile of digests. I'm rather taken
with the notion of Chief Server, but what about the alternative
spelling - Chief Sewer?
Incidentally, I'm sure you all know that rhyme which goes 'Turkeys
heresies hops and beer/ all came to England in the one year'. But
did you know that one of the heresies the Dutch brought was to _gut
and clean_ the herring before drying/pickling? Apparently the
concept quite distressed the locals. Garum, anyone?
