I wrote a long post, so far uncommented, on the intelligence of

on people -- who were not there -- to pour scorn on a mistake that
was possibly due
to D. Ritchie pronouncing Buchan aloud (in Scots) and the girl
being a native
Oregonian.
Oh and she's from Bosnia, but writes in English as well as anyone in
the class.
