And I add: On principle, having a Scotch accent is no proof either.
I meant that Barks *suggested* on many places that Scrooge is of
Scottish descendense.
(Please, keep noticing that I'm nitpicking.)

PS. Apologies for my fragmented replies. I've lots of things to do,
and I shouldn't be behind the computer now. I can't stand the
temptation, though. Help! Can you all stop writing for a few hours?
Thank you very much! :-)
