[thelist] Many or More?

Julian Rickards asked:

>>My editor has questioned a phrase I am using in my current book.

>>My statement is "most web pages created since the mid-1990's use
tables

"most".


Hi Jules,

*I* would go with "many".  But that may simply be because, as an old
'stat' guy, 
the quantification implied by "most" would bother me.


HTH,
