borrow/lend

[Patti J. Kurtz]

I searched the newer archives for this reversal, but didn't hit much.
is there a way to access the older ones?  A student of mine is curious
about the origins of this reversal, which she notices in her own speech
(North dakota)

Thanks either for a re-hash of this or a link to something about it.

that we manufactured it, just to get a space clearance program?



Foster: But we are RIGHT!



Straker: Sometimes, Colonel, that's not quite enough.
