One of the classes involved learning Latin medical terminology. I was only 17 at the time, surrounded by folks at least 10-20 years older than me. As soon as we grasped enough of the lingo, it was amazing how many of those so-called adults began using their newfound Latin skills...um, "creatively"... Of course, I didn't restrain myself either... ;-) And Swedish Tommy, that is absolutely disgusting no matter WHAT language you use. --TwoDragons I took a semester of vocational college in the vain attempt to become a court reporter (big mistake!).
