 AK> As for the absence of "a" before "vegetarian" I don't know.

remember, a vegetarian is vegetarian... it is one of those words that is both a
noun and an adjective...


here's something to think about, too...

  1 wood chopping device   - ax or axe
  >1 wood chopping devices - axes

  1 linear rotation line   - axis
  >1 linear rotation lines - axes

  sometimes axes != axes ;)


isn't english fun? -=B-)
