G'day all.

Quoting "Benjamin L.Russell" <dekudekup...@yahoo.com>:

Actually, according to the Wikipedia entry for "octopus" (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octopus), I probably should have written
the plural as either "octopuses" or "octopodes":

Ah, but "octopodes" is only the _nominative_ plural.  You really
should have written this:

    Or is that a logo of two octoposi, one with four arms, and the other
    with three?  Oh no, the poor octopodes!

Or, if the second sentence addresses the octopous, this would be correct:

    Oh no, the poor octopoi!

Hope this helps.  For your homework, what is the plural of "topos"?

Cheers,
Andrew Bromage
