First, thanks for the links in your other reply. It really is a fascinating service. [And I've really got to remember to use Google et. al. myself rather than laze-out on this kind of stuff].

As for "dinner", it's a perplexity for me (too?). I grew up in Quebec and there, at least back then, we ate breakfast, dinner and supper, in that order. "Lunch" existed, but it was always cold, in a bag or box and eaten elsewhere from home.
But in Toronto, and seemingly most other places, "supper" doesn't seem to exist. Here I hear breakfast, lunch and dinner.
I guess it's one of those oddities that would give me away if I was a spy.

cheers

>Hi Jim, even though I replied already, I just noticed the detail in your title of this thread: hot lunch (some call it dinner). This is interesting because growing up in Wisconsin, dinner was the evening meal or referred to as we usually called it: supper. Here in NC, dinner is lunch or supper, you only know by the time of day it is!
