If you come and look at this page, please leave a note here, because I don't think anyone except St Bob has even seen this page. This is exceptionally annoying because I want to know whot other people think of my idea of the Seven Deadly Sins. A Univerity project, perhaps?

Like "inept" meaning "good"? God help us...
Nah, it's not your fault. You (Americans, not you personally) have certainly got a wierd grasp of the English language, but I consider it to be just another dialect. Thus "disk" os OK in American English but not in British. I think the contamination is probably due to us, letting you lot set the standards (except in science, where it's the Frogs).
I've noticed that Americans also use the word "disc" for CDs, which I suppose is down to that logo you get on all jewel cases, players and drives.

to be honest with you, i have never heard the word "disk" used quite that way. and i think i ment inept as intricite ( i know i didn't spell that right) but i'm not quite sure. i never know what goes through my head from one moment to the next.
