Well, no, but I have inserted several 'e's into words on signs in the
building in which I work, or on days where I'm feeling particularly
disturbed by the lack of regularity in my daily language, turned the
odd 'i' into a 'y' and other 'y's into 'e's.
Sometimes it's like shooting ghoti in a barrel.
Perhaps, whatever one's views on the matter might be, we can all take
comfort in not being Blefuscudian.
cheers,
AC
