So the big think(in)g: Plural of child is childs!!
What else do u expect from Tam Brahm Thilagam..?
It seems childs was used as plural in the old days, with examples from 950 AD and 1460 AD. Children seems to have started around 1175 AD (or atleast examples are from that time.)

Loot = any extra money earned.
I had a real loot once! :dance:
An article on artificial eyelashes titled "If only..."
with less than 100 words (the shortest I ever wrote???)
fetched me Rs. 500 from The Hindu.
I had earned more than 5 Rs for every word I had written,
including the words "a", "an" and "the".
That kind of money is the real loot!

Not yet! May be I will later!!
I and a few others here are mutually exclusive.
If they are already there I will rather not enter the thread.
They too keep off, if they see that I am already knee-deep in a thread. :bolt:
Whenever I ask about the writing of the others here,
they neither reveal about it nor cross my path again!
So no questions about what you wrote, where and when.

I confess that I have this bad habit.
I do not read anything TOO long!!!
(except Ramayana and Bhaagavatham)
I like best the short and to the point posts.
I agree that tastes and opinions differ.
People (like our narrator friend) can make a mountain of a mole hill.
I would rather do it the other way - and try to underplay it.
