Which treat surfs the elusive dividing line the best? and also *Who is the most famous living person? Stuart, Stuart, I understand that you are new to the list, but please please read the FAQ's on what you can and can't post from Honey's Sinister site. Irrelevant topics like these just waste evreybody's time and clog up the list with useless information. If you want to say anything at all please make it relevant to the band. Right now that's been said, the Collins Engish Dictionary states that a biscuit is : 'a small flat dry sweet or plain cake of many varieties, baked from a dough.' Whilst a bar is: 'a solid rectangular block of any material' So, a biscuit must contain something that is made from a dough, and then can be covered in chocolate or not, depending on how you like it, whilst a bar can be anything rectangular. Therefore anything can be a BAR, but not anything a biscuit. Hence there is an area of overlapping territory here, a bit like a Venn diagram, with bars/biscuits that fall into both, so a twix/club/penguin are biscuits and bars simultaneously. However WHERE THE HELL DOES THAT LEAVE WAGON WHEELS? Most living famous person: Could be you Stuart if you bothered to re-release Tigermilk, play more gig and do interviews. Just a thought. Maybe I've hit the nail on the head and that's actually the reason you choose to spend your pop career hiding behind the sofa.
