Hmmmm, not sure why I got mentioned but.......
I would go for "more blunt" rather than "blunter"
No special reason that I'm aware of, just sounds better to me.
Surely no-one thinks that I'm a pedant???

Nope Velt you aren't a pedant.

Re: A pedant writes...
And I never intended to infer that you were mate. I know you have a thing about inappropriately placed apostrophies and so I assumed that you were into etymology and that was the only reason I mentioned your name. No offence meant mate

Nope I wouldn't have said Velt was into etymology
(I wish you lot would speak English like what I do)

No problem, guys.
I do have a pedantic streak, without doubt, and I've been called a lot of worse things!
