No "kind regards" for me ... November 18, 2002 ~ 2:56 p.m. In my job, I am responsible for recruiting graduate students to help supervise the undergraduate exams. In response to my request, one student responded that he was available and signed his e-mail �as ever was � (name withheld).� Not your ordinary respectfully or sincerely or even the truly grand best wishes. As ever was. Has a certain ring to it. Sounds like the sort of commencement that Dubya coulda�, woulda� invented, now don�t it? Dear Mr. So-and-so: I wish to thank you most kindly for your recent campaign contribution. As ever was, George W. Bush Actually, Dubya might instead prefer �as ever is.� Definitely not something that Clinton would�ve signed his name with though. All the legal ramifications of defining the word �is� would have done the man�s head in. Oh well. As ever was, Nightdragon � M.E.M.
