How can there be "a second final proofread!?" Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Was Pavlov a cross-dresser!?Www@QuestionHome@Com The Fat Lady sings as the finale and it is over, but not until the janitor turns off the lights in the hall!. The "double-check" proof read is a good idea in certain circumstances!. As Mel Brooks' character in "The History of the World part 1" might have said in the same situation "The pedants (sic) are revolting" "That's right, they stink on us (sic)" Very good Con-verb!Www@QuestionHome@Com The Bible speaks of a second death, but I don't think this is applicable to proofreading, unless it means to take in all alterations done following proofreading on completion of the piece (a first 'final' proofreading)!. Are we ever really done finishing things!?Www@QuestionHome@Com Final usually means final unless the one with the final say, says differently!. I think your "Pavlovian slip" might be a Freudian slip!.
