using obscure words doesn't make you look/sound intelligent... especially when you have to consult a dictionary to see what they mean and how to use them. it's real intellectual ability that comes from reading stuff like goethe, john milton and college textbooks for fun - failing that, one acquires knowledge from lots of experience (ie nick, troy, kevin, etc). perhaps you just have hobbies that are quite knowledge intensive (jim with his web-design). perhaps a combination of the aforementioned items will suffice to wrinkle your brain.
do some learning and come back later when you think you can hold your own without hiding behind websterFirst of all, it isnt Webster, its oxford, :mad: and second of all,.... You win
