See what you can learn from a *real* dictionary?

:)
I see you came with your Howitzer's fully loaded. Erudition and
recondite references win the day. BTW, what is the reference source?

OED, Second Edition, Volume 3.

I have the CD electronic version of that one, plus the
20-volume hardbound set of Second Edition and the supplements.

Bought the hardbound set at an estate sale long before the CD versions
were available, but I still use both.


Though it feels strange rolling off the tongue, I'll have to admit
that I'm envious.

And thou shalt not covet...

(Actually I do have an electronic version of the OED. But it's buried
in the scores of discs and dvd's I have littered across the house.)
