Subject: Re: US and UK terms

For stroke, send the subject "Help" to techdiver-request@aquanaut.com for 
instructions on how to do an archive search. Enter the word "Stroke" as 
the subject matter. If your buffers don't overflow, you might get the 
drift.

For bonesmuggler, this is the same as "pole-smoking butt-pirate" or 
"taking a drive up the hershey highway" or "rump ranger", hmmmm, what 
else, "cock breath", "butt fucker", and so on. Do you get the drift or am 
I going to have to break out the ascii graphics?

   Jim
