P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type &#126;&#126;&#126; (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (4 tildes).

Retrice vs. Rectrice
I think I may have just goofed. I "corrected" a link from rectrice to retrice, and only after noticed that both words seem to be in use. Are these two words simply spelling variations of the same word, or are they two distinct types of feathers? Thank you. SWAdair | Talk 07:26, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
