Nice. And thanks--I will. I need to sit down and have a serious stare at/Talking To with my novel first, I think, to see if it tells me itself how to revise it, but we'll see how it all goes.

It's fascinating to me sometimes how hit-or-miss cultural cues are. (See, I've read Wodehouse--but just this past year, and apparently at least that bit didn't sink too deeply into my brain.) But yes, certainly; cultural cues are connotations are words, and as writers we play with those... but everyone doesn't have the same deck.
