I checked back to the original post, and found I wasn't the only person who hit the dictionaries for this word. Someone there suggested the person was trying to use the word 'cerebrating'. But then the sentence makes absolutely no sense at all. AVOID thinking, pondering, reflecting, meditating and still come up with a cogent response??

I think it was a clear case of someone trying to use a big word to impress people and failing miserably at it.

And thanks for the warm welcomes!!
