The people who are peddling it certainly do, Mildred.

What about the rug weavers and other carpetbaggers? Shouldn't they be a part of fiber world. Then there is also the bankers. Since 2003 The Fibre Company has been selling some of the finest wool and yarn.

Are you talking about massive interconnection of networks and devices using fibre optic cable?

Never heard of it called "fibre world", where did you hear it? Wireless is being pushed more now days in my opinion.

This is the software section of CR4, not the communication area. What is softer to wear than merino wool yarn?

I'd be careful when looking at names and attaching anything to them.

There's a place in my town called the "Fiber Factory".

They have nothing to do with optical fibers and they don't make anything.

They sell knitting yarn.

Fibre McGee and Molly will know more than anyone else. But watch out when the knowledge explodes from the closet.

You say fibre and I say fiber. I bet we are both talking about fiber-optic networks, but I didn't know about any particular trend with this, as it has been around for a good number of years by now.

If that is not the correct answer, then yeah we are spinnin' yarns.

This could be about baked beans.

It might even be about colon blow cereal.

Lady goes into grocery store.

Lady: I need some beef hearts.

Clerk: Lady we don have any beef hearts.

Lady: Oh, nonsense, surly you have beef hearts!

Clerk: Lady we don have any beef hearts, really.

Lady: Well, that beats all I've heard. Now what am I going to do for beef hearts? I was counting on having beef hearts.

Clerk, in desperation takes lady to canned goods aisle and gives her a can of beans.

Lady: WHAT'S this, she says indignantly?

Clerk: Lady eat these tonight and tomorrow they'll beef hearts!

Dude, you are going to have to include some context or, a citation, an example, an anecdote........even a parable to your question.

New trend in what exactly?
