World's Smallest Political Quiz userbox
You may be interested in User:Audacity/Userboxes/WSPQ, which is a replacement for the old Political Chart userbox. The new userbox takes the two variables (economic and personal freedom), calculates which political alignment they place you into (Statist, Libertarian, Liberal, Centrist, or Conservative), and links your userpage to the appropriate category.

Please reply to User talk:Audacity, as I will not be watching your talk page.  Λυδ α cιτγ  07:40, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Busy Day
What a busy day you've had! I really think you should get some gold braid around your user page...  :-)   I see you're intending to shorten your name too.

Anyway, apologies for not replying sooner, but I have been rather plagued by poor health of late. It has kept me from Wikipedia, and many other places too. Nonetheless, thanks for your notes 'Pedantry' and 'Further Pedantry'.

Concerning the former, I am prepared to go as far as acknowledging that this is a legitimate debate! However, with a historical hat on, I am still searching for any justification for the 'No IV' affectation - it appears to be a very modern development. Having grown tired of "dipping into" Oxford, I am currently reading it right through, cover to cover, but every reference that I can see, both in Oxford himself, and in the texts he quotes, renders the lodge number as "No 4" [or historically "No 2" etc, as appropriate]. The same is true of my copy of the by-laws - not a roman numeral in sight! However, there is another aspect to all of this. British Lodge does appear to have used roman numerals for a very long time, indeed the style "No VIII" is incorporated into their lodge badge. I fear that by adopting the style of a very much more junior lodge, No 4 may be demeaning itself. Ah well, after all that, you're the boss - I'll get around to changing it sometime.

The other matter is, I feel sure, much more clear cut. Nobody could imagine that "(London)" in this context implied membership of the Metropolitan Area's masonic jurisdiction, because the next lodge in the list (357) is followed by "(Oxford)" and the next one after that (388) by "(Halesworth, Suffolk)", thus making it clear that the name in parentheses refers to the meeting place of the lodge. If it were an indication of the local masonic jurisdiction, then these two would be "(Oxfordshire)" and "(Suffolk)", and indeed the first named lodge would be "(Unattached)".

Don't stay up all night. Timothy Titus 22:29, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
