Responding to my own question, it seems the answer is, sometimes;

But not always;

How odd!

Some interesting history on the Coronado:

I thought I'd research the Coronado in my own library, so took out my
book on testing at Boscombe Down during WWII. It took a couple of
minutes to work out why the Coronado wasn't in the index...


And....?


I felt foolish.



I only tug once on the cheese.


That sounds rather rude.

Have a look in Google Maps for Boscombe Down, the site of the UK's
Aeroplane & Armament Experimental Establishment, and you'll see what I mean.


Rude, no, not at all. You expressed a partial thought. I was
interested enough to ask you to finish the thought. In reply, you
made a feeble attempt at facetiousness, I responded in kind.

I expend more than enough effort attempting to read my wife's mind. It
is just too much effort to try and read the mind of a Usenet poster
and it is certainly far too much effort to go to Google maps to
evaluate a site I am intimately familiar with just so I can guess the
meaning of your cryptic comment.

Rude? No, it was simply my way of saying I am going to leave your
mouse trap alone and not play the game.

All of this silliness could have been avoided if you had simply
expressed a complete thought initially.
