*chuckle*  I know what you mean. For the most part, I'm content knowing
the difference between a noun and a verb, and occasionally being able to
follow what their talking about. I tend to describe what something does
then let someone else come up with a long word for it. But IMO that's how
it should be, that is, described after it is already in place, rather than
letting preconcieved notions of what long words colour it.. (Did that even
make any sense?)
