I wrote a longish thing at my blogspot, "Griceclub.blogspots" under
"Tautology and Contradiction" on a 'gaffe' if gaffe it is in the Arizona daily,
"a lifelong native"
From Quinion's word-service:
"An article of 16 January in the Arizona Republic describes a New
Orleans resident as a "lifelong native". This differentiates him,
Bob Kelly guesses, from late-arriving natives."
In my blog entry I consider whether the writer (who was NOT McEvoy) is
contradicting hisself or another self.
Cheers,
