Just received back a freshly chromed slide done by Jack F. I know that this has been said before but I just had to say it again - great job! Beautiful finish, slick feeling, and downright pretty. Kudos to Jack! Thanks.

The grammar policeman makes another bust -  N-I-C-K-E-L    


EDIT: I had to go back and modify this right after posting - I noticed I had put "grammer.

I'll hopefully get mine nickel plated eventually.

EDIT: Aw crap. Beaten by seconds.

Funny, I ran through ispell (did it again just now too) and it didn't catch that.

Darn software kant spale either.

The spell checker didn't flag "nickle" because it is now an acceptable word.

nickle

/ni'kl/ n. [from `nickel', common name for the U.S. 5-cent coin] A nybble + 1; 5 bits. Reported among developers for Mattel's GI 1600 (the Intellivision games processor), a chip with 16-bit-wide RAM but 10-bit-wide ROM. See also deckle, and nybble for names of other bit units.

Ha! Thanks for coming to my rescue Bobo.

And to the spelling police...

POST PICS MAN!  

BTW. the spelling nickle is an acceptable variant of nickel.  It holds all the same meanings.  I would expect to see it more in the european market however.

"Nickle" is only now found in dictionaries because so many people mis-spell "nickel" that it is considered common use. That does not make it correct. The correct spelling is indeed "nickel," no matter where you're from.

Here, here. There will be no dumbing down of the KTOG forum as long as the grammar police are on the job Nor will I sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.
