Eagle Heart Member Registered: 03/22/05 Posts: 4876 Loc: Canada	Poppie, I found this by Googling "quiddity". There were a lot of hits, this was the first one I tried. "In philosophy, quiddity is identity or "whatness," i.e., something's "what it is." The term derives from the Latin word "quidditas," which was used by the medieval Scholastics to refer to a concept of substance they encountered while translating the works of Aristotle." http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quiddity _________________________ When you don't like a thing, change it.
