				            | Yes it is. I know what a charger is now. For a poor 18-year-old kid it wasn't such a key piece of information. |

				            | Also called (more rarely) a "place Plate", chargers are a decorative plate that sits on the table under the dinner plate.  They have generally fallen out of disuse except in the most formal of occasions.

| HI! | I have a sewing room too.  It's also known as the dining room.  Of course, the dining room is really a sitting room and the office is also a guest room and my closet. |
