Somehow, I'm not getting this meaning at all on so many papers that I receive each month, which mention that I will have to make more freely if I don't make freely by due date... :)

>One of the beauties of the English language is it can be interpreted in so many ways. It is therefore an outstanding example of a language to be used in a court of law. No body can agree upon the meaning or intent of words so a ruling has to be made as to what was meant! A different meaning may be understood by another court. It is all such fun!

My point exactly... if we get to agree on the meaning of "my", "point", "exactly" and "meaning" (not to mention the ellipsis, which can also be ambiguous) :)
