hehehe yes we could go on for ever,but the Roman numeral i doesnt exist.......I is very different from i so Im claiming a technical victory [GRIN][/GRIN]

 

The Romans only used what is called capital (upper case) letters in modern usage. In the Middle Ages, minuscule (lower case) letters were developed, and these are commonly used for Roman numerals: i, ii, iii, iv, etc. Also in medieval use was the substitution of j for a final i to end numbers, such as iij for 3 or vij for 7. This was not a separate letter, but merely a swash variant of i. It is used today, especially in medical prescriptions, to prevent tampering with the numbers after they are written

 

So your technical victory is.....
