Steven Spurrier exhorts investors to 'forget the vintage, buy the brand' and plump for top brands such as Mouton or Grange, and not vintages such as 1982.

I wonder what's worth more now - most 1982's or a 1981 Mouton or Grange.......mmm?

And what would you rather drink?  At least they had the humility to print it!

(Heartbreakers still comes to mind "How about an '86 Merlot"). If I should choose between a random 1982 wine, and a mouton 1981 - I'd go with the Mouton.

I assume, it being decanter from 1983, that it was related to the 82 futures.

Status: offline 		It just asterisks (*) out the naughty letters. s hitty (without the space) becomes ****ty (see my post above). But I thought about making a list of all my four-letter words and see what it does. And then see if there's some code I could insert in order to fool the program. But I'm not sure Eric would like that very much. So **** it.

He, he. You can read it if you quote the post. So it actually saves the text and doesn't alter it - instead it actively blocks out the naughty terms pageload by pageload.

Still seems like the big one is snit.  Which is funny, beacuse it's the most commonly used
