One is subjective, the other is objective. What some people think is
long, others would say is short. Longer or longest can be measured, howeever. Some people would say this thread is long. Some would even say too long. It is certainly longer than it needs to be, and a shorter thread would have been bettter. But it's not the longest thread I've ever seen, nor is it certainly the shortest. But then, my memory is short. I often wish it were longer. On 11 Apr 2005 06:15:53 GMT, Stan Gosnell wrote: "Chris" wrote in : "Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in message ink.net... "Chris" wrote in message ... Incorrect, that's longer, i.e. there are two long runways but one is longer than the other, or two short runways with one longer. Wouldn't the longer of the two be the long one? Nope the longer of the two would be the longer one. They could both be long ones, but only one can be longer. The longer of the two could still be short. If the longer was only 500', I would still call that short. It's longer, but short. Or you could say the other one was the shorter one. But you don't have to call me Ray. |
