HOSPITALER
but I don't see a way at short notice.
T-->I gives PALEO-IRISH but I'm not at all sure that's a word.
A-->F works, giving SHOPLIFTER.
But I think we'll run aground pretty quickly if we don't knock out a letter or two soon. Even PHILOSOFER doesn't cut down the length at all.

A SHOPLIFTER with proper jailhouse weight-training programs can then become one of the jailhouse

PRO-LIFTERS.
Then after he bails, he can go beat the hell out of poor shopkeepers.

of us find it unmanageable to drop letters because we know a lot of long words but we don't know but a smattering of short words so you must understand that we experience a degree of discombobulation when you say that our words should be SHORTENED without the aid of a mechanical d>r SHORTENER
