Well, since I'm Dutch and I normally speak Dutch, I may say some things a little bit different then people who normally speak English. (Also I don't care much about what people usually do :lol: )

Also, the example I gave; I think you were posting more a few months ago then you do nowadays (but I didn't count exactly though) so I may have refered to that if I would have said "used".


About summer and winter I would like to say this: I can imagine if it's cold in the winter and warm in the summer, that a curious mind asks: Why? What causes that there's snow and ice in the winter, and in the summer you can swim in the sea and it's warm? So, to answer your question:
But I don't even know such things existed, so I can't look them up, can I?
Yes you can. (if you find it interesting of course)

Even though my mind is always interested, it never was curious.

I find that hard to believe. You are always asking so many questions, so I thought you are a curious person just like me. Even more when I was younger like a child or a teenager, I always wanted to know why is this and why is that. And in your case; Why do people this or why do they that?

Well, I am curious. But some things I don't think of questioning.


(Bah - my quote failed earlier.)

I see. And the same happens to me too. That someone says or asks something and that I think: Hey that's interesting but I never thought about that before.
(Bah - my quote failed earlier.)
Yes, it seems that it's important to you that your username is in the quote (Why actually?) and by changing that you accidentally removed/forgot the "

It worked fine when I previewed it. Then it suddenly changed.

To clarify that you were talking to me so if anyone didn't know they wouldn't have to look upward to know.

I see. Well, if I talk to different persons in one post, I use to mention their usernames, to clarify to who I'm talking. But since you and I were the only two persons talking here, I thought that's obvious. Also I had quoted you in that same post before, with your username in the quote.

BTW it never happened to me when I previewed a post, that it's different when I submit it. Without the " before and after the username it simply doesn't work.

Something must have somehow happened in between the time I previewed the post and the time I posted it. Which was a very, very short time.

I must sleep now. Goodnight.

Very much late. :lol:

Well, that depends on, which night you're talking about. If you mean the night from 31-12-1999 to 01-01-2000 then you're indeed a little late. But if you mean the night which is coming now, you're right in time for me. If we say that the night begins at 0:00 hour, then I've just about 15 minutes to go. 8)

Anyhow, thanks and good night too. :D

Also here we call it the Christmas holidays rather than the summer/winter holidays.
