Throw Miss Kissane under the bus, or better, water...board her in a perfect storm surge at Lake Superior State!

The ilk of Emily is the new Carrie Nation, but back in the day of Miss Nation people weren't so random and would usually give back what they took. Miss Emily though, saw fit to author a hit piece on Anu's wordsmithing, albeit her word piece didn't "pop".

I say we host a Webinar and totally decimate this post 911 witch...hunt. I don't mean to be emotional but it is what it is.

nicely done, milo!

sweet.

As usual, they totally ignore my excellent suggestion. "Banned words."

Adultescent. A word 'smithed ' by Precision Marketing.
Without the added comment, I would have taken this word for a new perfume.
For adolescents and teenagers to spray a touch of adulthood behind their ears before they go out. For adults with regressive tendencies also available: Infantescent.

(this word is branned)

One of the complaints, specifically about the word author as a verb, quotes Edwin Newman as wondering "if it would be correct to say that someone 'paintered' a picture?" I wonder if it would be correct to say that an usher ushed or that a tutor tuted?

"I've never read anything created by a wordsmith - or via wordsmithing - that was pleasant to read." – Emily Kissane, St. Paul, Minnesota.
I wonder how many people will send her a link to AWAD?? Also, the "banners" (heh) would do well to have better editing: they duplicated a comment in the last section.

That's one defintion. And "nice" means "ignorant".

>defintion [sorry Faldo]

I've noted before that this is prolly my most (inadvertently) misspelled word. I've just googled it, and found that this is a very common error: 1,330,000 gh.

and there are 711 gh for "defintion +misspell".

-joe (it must be the finger mechanics) friday

And about 1,220,000 of those are my mispelings.

Welcome, bamb. Did you read the context?

It totally doesn't.

...which bring to mind, from the depths of memory (about age five) this bit of doggerel:

A tutor who tutored the flute
Tried to tutor two Tudors to toot.
Said the two to the tutor,
"Is it harder to toot
Or to tutor two Tudors to toot?

I can accept the regulation of organic in food, cosmetic, and other consumer industries, but banning it from “formal use” gets my carbon up.

Should LSSU take up the ban, their librarians could be empowered to severely thin the chemistry stacks—if they have any.
