] Date Posted: 14:29:24 12/05/04 Sun In reply to: Trixta (UK) 's message, "Another Duby classic" on 14:13:48 12/05/04 Sun I believe that Disraeli was once asked to distinguish between a misfortune and a calamity. Straight off the cuff, he said, "If Mr Gladstone were to fall into the Thames, that would be a misfortune. If someone were to pull him out again, that would be a calamity."
