Mike,

I am glad to know someone else has heard the term used in the way I knew
about.  I haven't used the word in a long time.  Some colloquialisms you
like and some you don't.  Ditto is one I just don't care for.  I just don't
like the sound of it for some reason.  <smile>

I think we have Rush Limbaugh to thank for the new meaning of ditto as a
term of agreement.
At least, that's how I now use the term even though, now that you
brought it up, its original meaning was "of little importance."
Funny how words begin taking a new life of their own thanks to a pop
culture icon.
