dendrobia
depends upon the usage, doc... I have several cultivars, each one is a single Dendrobium (caps used for the genera) and taken in such a group, they are Dendrobiums. Several of the same cultivar I guess would properly be Dendrobia. Kinda like a group of persons is people... several different groups of people is "peoples" as in "the peoples of the world..."

That's where the farts come from.

As I was going up the stair
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today
I wish that man would go away.

That reminds me DCD, I never quite finished with you on the thread about spelling reform...

Hahaha, thou hast never finished with me on anything else, headbang... anon, anon! Wherefore dost thou tarry?
 
Here's a little mathematical formula:

If: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

is represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%



and

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-!-T

2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G

1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullsh!T and Ass kissing that will put you over the top
