Yes, for me too it scores a 'clear O'. Yet I know some people, faced
with the rather nebulous origins of some of the open databases, might
prefer to deal with a 'real co'. But it's thirsty work, and as soon as
I've drunk an 'er, cola', I'll be getting down to 'la core' of it.

I just hope I don't wind up in the 'all sorry line'...
