Haha, Willy! No I don't think spelling counts unless you are obviously trying to show off your command of the language.
As far as the rest goes, good for you. You make some compelling observations. Thank you for stating your opinions in an open and inclusive way.

Jarmine, I am still corssing my fingers for you. Maybe you'll get an explanation yet!

Looks like i'll have to give this one away knowing that my original answers were to my best at the time.

According to this list, the modern period of philosophy started in 1750. Quite a few Scots figure prominently in this list, such as David Hume, Adam Smith, and John Stuart Mill.

Dunno about the nasus sensus, nonsense, but you certainly bring out a sense of nausea!

Sonsie,
I didn't know that all those famous men were Scots! I knew there was a Scottish connection to this thread!
I am going to look at the link now!
