	Is it any wonder that the English language is dying when no one
will use the proper form of a word in the correct context.  The only time
the phrase "nice guy" should be applied is when discussing ice hockey
("Nice guys finish last" - Scotty Bowman).  In discussions of relation-
ships between the sexes, the proper form is "niceguybut" as in "You're
SUCH a nice guy, but...".  Anyone care to guess how many times that kiss
off line has been used??
