>I put that in there when quoting text in my reply.

I've learnt something new about grammer today - I had no idea that term existed, I've never seen it before until I read the message.

When I read it, (don't laugh LOL), I thought it was meaning "sick" and because it was placed before "family" - I put 2 and 2 together and came with, well, you can probably see what was part of my conclusion maths! I feel rather stupid, I couldn't understand it. I thought I must of been missing something. Good god, I think i'll go and wear the dunce hat for the rest of the day. I noticed the spelling mistake, just had no idea of that term...

>My own private pathology...

:-)

>Sorry if it caused any consternation.

No problem :-)

>I'm not sure how it might or might not relate to mediation, though.

According to http://www.askoxford.com/asktheexperts/faq/usage/sic, it doesn't at all. I should be thanking you for teaching me something new today - Thank you :-)

>Is that the mystery?

Part of it ;-)
