Come to think it, "probably" is quite similar to "maybe" and "perhaps" and it will have to go. :) When I blog, the only thing I'm very conscious of is the number of times I use "I". Some time ago it had occurred to me that my writing contains a lot of this single-letter word as well as the associated "my" and "me". So far I have not been able to drive them away, as you can tell by reading these short paragraphs. I should practice writing (= blog) more often.
