Hi,
This will hopefully lighten the tense situation in the mailing list.
Poem by Ogden Nash:
The cow is of the bovine ilk
One end moo, the other end milk
Ilk was a synonym for same in the middle ages but now means type or kind. That
being said, at the risk of being impugned, I think that Mr Paul Vogel's usage
of the word ilk is jarring and incorrect.
