Err - I don't see why it's not right. If I say orange, I'll pronounce it
'orrinj'. If I say lozenge, I'll pronounce it 'lozzinj'. Looks like a
rhyme to me - same vowel sounds, same emphasis on the 1st syllable, same final
consonent. ?????
And isn't it such a shame that I don't actually have any orange bricks
to send you <grin>

| (...) It is a shame-- the orange bricks look sweeet in a lot of Lego color combos-- you should get some. I am actually a little less desperate because I found a stash of them and was able to complete my project. BTW I have a lot of slopes for sale (...)
