A bit like 'dunno' (perhaps a little more extreme.)

Gee, you'll never know how glad I am that you told me that! <G>.

By the way, this morning I read a commetn of yours about a certain verb not being a correct usage. I thought it was 'gwneud' but can't find it. Do you happen to remember where and what? Thanks. Hazel
