This has never chimed with my perception, and I might be inclined to claim that I could use the article above to argue my case. I might need a linguist to back me up, though.

Not so hot, huh? But I never did figure out what I was doing -- obviously trying to trigger a cascade but how? As for the Supremes, I'm afraid I lost interest soon after reading that Clarence Thomas didn't talk enough to count.
