I have no idea what you're talking about. I've corrected nobody in this thread. On the contrary, the point of my previous post in this thread was that 'stadia', while CORRECT is pedantic (even by my standards). It's a shame that I have to spell that out for the rest of you.

And if you're all so sensitive, I can think of several solutions, including getting a clue, leaving, and shoving it up your old address.

As did I, and I have a long history of mbyron correcting my errors.

Oh, like that makes you special.

And: you sound like my wife.

Also: shut up.

OK, on second thought, don't!
