pronunciation. :-D

Oh man, bummer. We're 68.4 right now, gorgeous out, I'm only in long

enough
to drink my smoothie, before I head back out. I'm leaving the screening on
the koi ponds till next weekend as they say we're going to dip down again
next week to 30s lows, 50s highs. Being on the north side of the house I
lose a lot of heat gain if the filter and waterfall are running. Water is
clear with the just using filtration in winter mode, and of course I'm not
feeding the fish. I did have to remove a corner of the screen today where
the marsh marigold was, the buds started blooming and getting smished
against the screen. ~ jan

Why isn't 11 pronounced onety one?

Shouldn't it be pronounced ten one? We don't call 21 two one, 20 is

twenty,
21 is twenty one, so 11 should be ten one. ;o)

How about oneteen?
