| And, how about:
2 2 was a race horse
1 1 was one too.
2 2 won one race, and
1 1 won one too.

380.2 | Had ** 11 | ZWODEV::NOBLE | | Tue Jul 14 1987 15:21 | 14 |
| Re .0:
I always think this is more effective as:
John whereas Mary had had had had had had had had had
had had the teacher's approval.
I.e.:
John, whereas Mary had had "had had", had had "had". "Had had"
had had the teacher's approval.
Such sequences have been discussed somewhere in some conference
but I can't remember offhand whether it's in here or in (the now
sadly lost) Brain_bogglers.

380.5 | Had enough? | IOSG::DUTT | | Fri Jul 17 1987 14:27 | 7 |
| The "had....." thing turned up before (can't remember whether it
was here or in GRAMMAR), but whoever put in the original note actually
typed twelve "hads" instead of eleven. So I suppose we could validly say:
Note x.y, while note x.z had had had ...........
This would give you 40 "hads". On the other hand, if I miscounted....

| This seems to be a variation on the more common
"That that is is that that is not is not is that it it is"
which one is supposed to punctuate so that it makes sense. The
proper answer is
"That that is, is. That that is not, is not. Is that it? It is."
