- Brad and others, since this newsgroup is quoting from dictionarys these
- days, I thought I'd fill in some information for you. I took your
- question mark as an uncertainty.
-
- Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary 1981 (yeah it's old):
- Ditto 1 : a thing mentioned previously or above - used to avoid repeating
- a word.
- Ditto 2 : to repeat the action or statement of.
- Ditto 3 : as before or aforesaid: in the same manner
- Ditto 4 : having the same characteristics.
-
- Rush L. (Not an exact quote):
- Dittohead : A caller who agrees most of the time or rather all of the time
- with the host's (Rush) opinions.
-
- I am not a Dittohead, but I feel you have to give some credit to Rush
- and his sometimes blind mice for using words correctly. I wish that more
- of us could do so. Then again, we are human and humans make mistakes all
- the time...bla bla bla bla;-)
