Ah, thank you ED. I have learned. Will use "define:" from now on.
It seems to me, that Steve, Bill, Mike, Mel, Mayka may all aware of your
motivation. Just not sure whether you are. Nothing personal....
Thank you for your input. JM

JMJM,
The Google tool I use to find the different meanings of a word, say
'insufferable', in this case is:
Google[define:insufferable]
This statement yields all the answers Google can find on the Internet
for definitions of 'insufferable', namely:
"Definitions of *insufferable* on the Web:
* impossible: used of persons or their behavior; "impossible
behavior"; "insufferable insolence"

OR, equivalently:
http://www.google.com/search?sclient=psy&hl=en&q=define%3Ainsufferable&btnG=Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&pbx=1
<http://www.google.com/search?sclient=psy&hl=en&q=define%3Ainsufferable&btnG=Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&pbx=1>
This tool should should liberate you, Mayka and others from dependency
on the fellow group members.
I specifically state my motivation, lest Bill or someone else
misinterpret my motivation, and only see the worst in my actions. ;-)
