Re: Windmills and all that...
1. You said that "catsup" is something different from "ketchup", and I showed a dictionary definition that says they're synonymous.
2. You said that "Ketchup" is a brand name, and I showed a link that demonstrates that it's just a regular noun, by virtue of their being many products from many manufacturers, all called "ketchup".
Crank? Moi?
Also, you need to organise the windmills thing properly; you're getting your literary reference arse about face. One tilts at windmills, one does not erect them.

No, I'm not.
You're saying things that are demonstrably wrong. What's to miss?

You are missing the point...
You really are you know.
Just like you saying the OSX version of Ketchup/Catsup just IS better.
So, you see, I can play your cat, mouse and dog game just as easily as you can. Mister Stupid Git!

And in Australia...
... it's universally called 'tomato sauce'. Or just 'sauce'. And since for so long it was 100% unidentifiable ingredients, in recent years the major makers have been shifting back to tomatoes, in taste if not in actuality.
