binder, not blinder Broadly speaking, a binder is a substance that causes two other substances to join together. I think it involves some kind of chemical process.

Why not?
For a paper that is published in a book, isn't that interesting?
It is supposed to have been read at least once by an arbiter.

I didn't know that was from a book.
Anyway, after helping people on the Forum for a long time, I seldom think about laughing at other people's mistakes.
