It is my understanding that , at least here in North America, the word 
'mice' is a plural of mouse (the animal) and 'mouses' is plural of mouse 
(the computer equipment). So although Marc might also have problems with 
'mice', I do not believe that's what he was referring to.

Nighty, night pappa.
