For indeed it is more correctly Hamelin, or even Hameln in the native tongue of it’s country.
Which leads one onto the subject of Rats……

Aha the rascally Knave with trickery in his heart shows himself….
December 16, 2009 at 1:13 am #165431Mr Blue,further to your earlier enquiry regarding the young rascal in the 85 class that could ride like a demon,I have made some further investigation and it turns out his name is Eagan Masten (not sure of the spelling). He hails from Patterson I do believe. He came 5th in the Aussie titles after winning two rounds but crashed out in the end.
Certainly some one to watch in the future.December 16, 2009 at 3:01 am #165432

Indeed.
The amusing part is that in an attempt to one-up themselves with some lesser spoken words they have pulled out some which don’t make sense and/or aren’t appropriate for the context in which they are written :laugh:

‘A conglomerate is a combination of two or more companies engaged in entirely different businesses together into one overarching company. Conglomerates are often large pieces.[1] The term may also refer to a multi-industry company.’
Maybe amalgamate would have been a better choice of words
:laugh:
December 16, 2009 at 3:25 am #165441Moto moto you failed to Google Conglomerate in it’s entirety.
A conglomerate is also a large rock made up of smaller rocks.( similar to your corporate example) I used the word “conglomerate” as an analogy.
Here’s hoping that has cleared that one up. :laugh:

AnonymousConglomerate, collecting, piling up, gather, mass or accumulate are also others words that can be used, none of them make the sentence any better grammatically :huh:
The insinuation isn’t that you collect any of the nouns, verbs or anything else. The insinuation was that you use them well. So, either way you dress it up, from whatever website you choose to look at, it’s still not 100% correct, which I believe was the point I was making
December 16, 2009 at 4:43 am #165447By using it as an analogy,I never intended to be 100% correct. I was merely contributing to this palaver of a thread.
December 16, 2009 at 4:58 am #165313WTF :ohmy: I turn my back for two hrs and look at this crap, you blokes need to join a different forum because now

Ahem Moto that’s the priceton university site isn’t it? I took it to be a conglomerate of words as such myself, unlike the forest at Coffs harbour which is named after the geological description of rock type underneath
And yes TB this thread may indeed fall victim to the succubbus, but it may instill a better appreciation of words, we all live in hope.
