While I certainly sympathise with your quest for accuracy, I must point out
that you yourself could stand to develop some additional meaning here,
Tommo... To wit(1):
How big of a closet? I've some big ones and some small ones. I like the big
ones better, of course.
How good of a living? Enough to afford Marla Maples, or enough to barely pay
the trailerpark lot rent each month? (I've lived in a trailer and I'd much
prefer that Marla didn't have to, thank you very much)
How big is a bunch of track? Are we talking paltry amounts like the GBoWR run,
or something substantial? (I don't have room for a LOT of track, but I
certainly can squeeze in a moderate bunch, say 5000 feet, as long as I can go
multilevel)
Downtown Fort Wayne only or the whole metroplex? (OK, OK, I've been to Fort
Wayne, there's actually not that big a difference)
See what I mean?
1 - so to speak.
