Posted By Merv Newman Good replies from IOSH. Will anyone take any notice, or even publish our replies ? Remember the mountain worn away by a sparrow passing once every thousand years and wiping it's beak on the highest point ? Persistent, that bird. We still have a good bit to go. One point which could be addressed : when A school bans something then it is often reported that "XYZ is now banned at school" with the implication that "school" is being used as a collective noun, (I watch Countdown, too) perhaps with later attribution to a particular school or set of governors, but it is the plural that sticks. Per ardua. Merv
