gwen: do Brits also apply the term "biscuits" to the small files websites send to your computer?

I hope so.

no nedlog, we don't. it's a shame. then they could be stored in ye olde biscuit tin or somesuch.

i have however heard complaining types complaining about the use of the word 'slash', as in 'bbc dot co dot uk forward slash radio 4'. on what grounds? 'slash' is an aggressive, american term and indicates violence and brutality, apparently. we gentle british folk should use a word like 'stroke'. ho ho ho. which, to me, suggests cats on laps, brain seizures, penises going in and out of places, what else?
