Mostly because it's usually dark fuzzy letters on a dark background. I'm glad you enjoyed the story and the title.<br /><br />Thanks Kait and Kara. I do plan to write more so eventually I'll have enough for an anthology called Mrs. Marble Investigates.Gloria Aldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581719606924364447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-90653311280772743062014-12-08T21:55:54.806-05:002014-12-08T21:55:54.806-05:00Sorry--that reCaptcha (or whatever) went a little ...Sorry--that reCaptcha (or whatever) went a little crazy on me & kept reposting.KM Rockwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03973749764907859829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-6514811908305642052014-12-08T21:53:53.813-05:002014-12-08T21:53:53.813-05:00Thanks for the great read!

I used Hiram College for some of my research on papers I was writing when I discovered them. My dream was to someday own a whole set of them. Never happened. Although I do have one large Oxford Dictionary beside my computer. It doesn't go back into the origin and history of all words, though.<br /><br />The idea for this story originally came from a newspaper article - another reason I love newspapers - about a woman who was, I think, suing her parents for naming her Brittanica after the Brittanica Encyclopedias.

I like my online dictionary just fine. My husband attached metal braces to the backs of our bookcases so they wouldn't fall down so the logistics of your story rang true. Thanks for the fun. Have a wonderful holiday!E. B.
