Maggie, you had the same reaction as I did. After reading augusta I was a
little "disgusta" (How do ya like my Italian? LOL) Sorry, Joseph, but I
think making contributors to this list feel uncomfortable because of spelling

nicer, more diplomatic and less judgemental way, would have gotten the point
across without offending anyone.
