Re: Comparison of adjectives (dumb question department)

The quote? Well, the brilliant and cynical Dorothy Parker once wrote:

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
A medley of extemporanea;
And love is a thing that can never go wrong;
And I am Marie of Romania.

In other words, I vote that there's nothing dumb about asking for clarification
of two terms that don't even show up in the online OED! :-)
