	Oh! I thought it was THAT word Kense! Is it rude? Oh gosh! Oh, sorry, gosh is a euphemism, which means it's a word that is used instead of a taboo word. ..............ummmmmmmmmm.......... Sorry, can't think of a word to express surprise that isn't rude or religious based. I could say 'Surprise'! But it sounds wrong in this context, and you'd probably be disappointed to know I haven't got an Easter egg for you. Sorry, Easter eggs - Christian or Pagan?

	But what length of dots is required? Is two enough? Five how many? Also as previously noted it can only reflect a "naughty" word if the reading reads it that way.

	A row of dots is known as an ellipsis, a form of punctuation that means "the omission from speech or writing of a word or words that are superfluous or able to be understood from contextual clues."

	CNN have a twitter feed of current news... this feed is also converted into morse code at various speeds, from 7 wpm up to ( as far as I am able) impossible speeds.... good practice...........if you have nothing else to do, (like housework ironing....etc)

	Funny that Rollo I never said there was anything twisted about knowing morse code.
