David: I propose a list of words or phrases that are in common parlance that you >> know you've never used. And possibly some meditation as to why. "Prioritize" -- disgusting "Continue on" -- 'on' is completely unnecessary "Impact" as a verb -- never, never, never! "Yeah, No!" -- cognitive dissonance abounds "Moreover" -- just a silly sounding word that I've never even written, let alone spoke "Overview" -- can you say "redundant"? "Utilize" in place of "use" -- "Utilize" is valid when it actually means to turn something that was not meant for what you are using it for, into something that is appropriate for that use. Otherwise, use "use" I could think of a hundred more, but I'll leave spme room for others. p ------------------------------------------------------------------ To change your Lit-Ideas settings (subscribe/unsub, vacation on/off, digest on/off), visit www.andreas.com/faq-lit-ideas.html
