Responding to my own question, it seems the answer is, sometimes;

But not always;

How odd!

Some interesting history on the Coronado:

I thought I'd research the Coronado in my own library, so took out my
book on testing at Boscombe Down during WWII. It took a couple of
minutes to work out why the Coronado wasn't in the index...


And....?


I felt foolish.



I only tug once on the cheese.


That sounds rather rude.

Have a look in Google Maps for Boscombe Down, the site of the UK's
Aeroplane & Armament Experimental Establishment, and you'll see what I mean.


There was nothing rude about the comment. I asked for you to elaborate
on your original, incomplete thought and you would not do so, instead
you responded with a feeble attempt at facetiousness.

I spend enough time trying to read my wife's mind due to the female
propensity for expression through the use of incomplete thoughts.

Now, you try and send me on a silly research project just to uncover
the final sentence of your thought? No thanks.
