| Please do not abuse the English language. The teaser specifies a "unique attribute". Since more than one person shares the attribute, it's not unique. Even allowing "unique" to apply to your general class, you'd have to list every generally-known person who had a nickname including "fox". As it is, "Silver Fox" was a general term of appreciation long before Charlie adopted it. |
