Some of my posts get silly just because I am in a hurry and my typing doesn't match my thoughts perfectly. But I am sorry i missed the great chaise debate! _kimba j summit ________________________________ From: Kathi Hutton <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Friday, February 21, 2014 12:47 PM Subject: [Ohio-birds] More listserv silliness This is going to date me a bit, but does anyone else remember the Great Couch-Sofa-Davenport Debate? Many years ago, not long after I joined the list, there was a series of hysterical (to me, anyway) posts involving a couch. Some bird, I don't even remember what species, was being seen near a place where someone had dumped a bunch of trash, including a couch. Reports would always include the couch as a reference point. After a while, the couch became the focus of the posts: Was it in fact a couch or a sofa? Perhaps the southern species, a davenport. Suggestions of Love Seat, the lesser couch, were rejected. It was a wonderfully funny time, and it was what encouraged me to come out of the shadows, stop lurking, and start posting. I miss that spirit.
