| You have to be generous with the 'dude'. He does have some severe reading comprehension problems. After all, it only took him over a month to mis-read a single post. |

Dear Sheik,
I don't think that was a mis-take.
Cleopatra was probably trying to break the word down into the fewest number of syllables so as to make it more accessible to "the dude."

Dear Stephen,
Ah, but how could you expect someone who doesn't even know the meaning of the word to divide "syllable" into syllables correctly?
