an e-mail when they meant "Twitchathon".

Can I make a plea for this not to become common practice. I have my G-mail
filters set to automatically bin any message with "Twitchathon" in the
subject line, but not "Twitch". The difference is that I might be interested
in going on a twitch, but definitely not on a twitchathon. If people start
to use twitch for twitchathon I am going to have to do a lot of manual
binning!"

Thanks for that John.
That was the funniest posting I have seen on Birding-Aus for years!
It certainly brightened up an otherwise 'grey' day.
