RE: [tips] [tips]redundancy
Dear Tipsters, DKH (and someone else - sorry, can't remember whoO, noted that "Up next" refers to baseball. That makes sense: "The batter coming up next is" can be shortened to "Up next". But I agree that shorter is better in general, so I prefer just "next" when it is not baseball. Sincerely, Stuart __ Via Web Access "Floreat labore" "Recti cultus pectora roborant" -- Stuart J.

Re: [tips] [tips]redundancy
It seems to me that "up next" at one time related only to baseball batting orders. "Next" is when one is waiting in line for service at, say, a taco stand. The "up" in "up next" must come from the admonition, "batter up." That make sense? (Note: I'm not happy to use extra words when fewer will do.)
