    One solution is to always make the lenses oversize, then freeze them
    before inserting into warm metal frames. Screw tight before lenses
    warm up, expand, and snug the frame.

    I do have at work.. I'll look it up when I get back there later in the
    week. The compact OED online doens't like lense though.

  3. Mine does not. If you believe otherwise, prove it!

  4. It's not a mistake-- its a variant listed in Merriam-Webster's Medical
    Dictionary. It wouldn't suprise me if its use were common in some
    countries.

  5. A troll that can't spell "Nicholas", to boot!

    Done with trolls.

    Next question--preferably concerning eyes or vision??

  7. Definitely no troll here, yank. You made a statement that you cannot
    back up, and you got called on it. Now - if you are up to it - be man
    enough to admit that you were wrong.

  8. There is nothing that _I_ have to resolve - there is nothing I need to
    prove, either to myself or to anyone else. It seems you do, but all you
    have managed to prove so far is that you are a typical blowhard - you make
    a patently unsupportable statement and then duck and run when you are
    called on it - the sort of behaviour one has come to expect from Gatti or
    Brown..

    Oh ... and my name is Nicolaas, if you please. Have at least the minimal
    courtesy to address me correctly.

    Pro-vide, if you p-lease, an auth-oritative cite sup-porting your
    con-tention that the ran-dom in-sertion of a hyphen in a word is always
    cor-rect us-age. Pretty absurd, isn't it?

    How about if you just claim that "mis-spell" is spelled correctly? I
    thought that would also be pretty easy to disprove, by simply typing it
    into my online dictionary. Low and behold, my dictionary says that it is
    in fact a correct spelling!

  10. Not necessarily, although the anatomical variety have been in scant
    evidence.

    A low blow indeed. :)

    I stand corrected. Better yet, I will bend low corrected.
