The beans was a red herring.

I don't think red herrings that totally form a legit category should be allowed. If four words go together they go together, whether or not they were what the puzzle designer had in mind.

Well, now I guess I'll have to read it to find out what his preference is!

Did you writers read the Sept. 29 issue article about Henry Fowler and his "Dictionary of Modern English Usage"?

I had a copy of Fowler on my bookshelf. I don't remember when or why I got it. I can't remember if I ever used it. I don't remember what I did with it or when.  :-\

I found the discussion of the use of "that" and "which" particularly interesting. Apparently, I follow Fowler' preference and didn't even know it.  ;D
