Re: syntax

Good point. However my American Heritage Dictionary uses moving van. I
doubt the hyphen would have changed the result. The real problem is the
phrase "parked moving van". It can only be interpreted as being something
standing still with the word moving being a qualifier as to the type of van.

I also weep for what "they" don't know but is a moving van different from
a moving-van?
