    LOUD NOISES!!!
    tactility = to be touched
    ductility = able to be drawn/strectched into a wire
    Maleability = to be beaten intoa shape

    ... or am I just being picky - coz if I am I'm in trouble... I'm nosey too.

    And picky shouldn't go with nosey - at least not in a public forum

    ... think I'll leave now...

    Of course the sublty of relating concepts is lost on the pedantic.

    All this talk of touching, and being drawn into things, and being beaten - I'm going to have a cold shower...

    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.

    The topic at hand? Zandalee's request for a ride? Or the the attempt in this case, of trascendence of subtility? Intelligible discourses are spoiled by too much subtility, thus creating division and introducing the obtuse.

    I dunno eh.

    your 'intelligible discourse' treads close to the fine line of pretentious fluffery that really shouldn't be allowed if it's not spelled correctly.

    I seem to remember a hint at some stage referring my spelling ability to dictionary.com. As has been stated, it is not the actual that should be questioned it is the intent. Pedanticism rears it's ugly head again?

    Transcendance of subtley.

    To reduce the issue at hand and transform to the somewhat vulgar - I can't be arsed reading 100's of pages of stuff to find out what the hell everyone is one about.

    Please keep discussions of fluffers to a minimum - they REALLY destroy my ability to concentrate...

    I'm all for Peter Gabriel's approach in "Big Time"

    The place where I come from is a small town
    They think so small, they use small words
    But not me, I'm smarter than that,
    I worked it out
    I'll be stretching my mouth to let those big words come right out

    not really.

    it's just that there's something WRONG about pretentiously in-duh-lecktual posts with spelling errors. jarring. unpleasant.

    you may note that *I* make a point of dropping out of sloppy-type for my occasional excursions into erudition.
