>From a CNN anchor:

"It's good that you've got your toppers, because it's raining."   Caps.

"And now we rock on with some baseball."  Continue.

>From a dolphin expert:

"It seems to have happened in a snapshot." In an instant.

"That's one hypothesy." Hypothesis.

Need I say that none of these utterances were accompanied by amy hemming,
hawing, or bumbling?
