Weird words

[Al Geist <al -dot- geist -at- geistassociates -dot- com>]

   Kathleen MacDowell's son is correct in saying that "OR" should
   actually be written "logical OR;" however, I doubt if any programmer,
   or anyone knowledgeable about programs or mathematics would confuse OR
   (all caps) with or (lower case) if the overall sentence made sense.
   The problem was the original question was trying to impose the rules
   of English on a Boolean operator.  Rewriting the sentence for clarity
   was the real solution.
   As for Dori Green's baseball cap....document is a perfectly good noun
   unless, like your example, it's being used as a verb.
