" but the old tools cognoscenti "
I love that word.,..and I am going to try and work it into my everyday vocabulary...
Yeah, a good one. Lots of seldom used words out there. I like "defenestration" which means throwing someone out of a window. Or "
propedeutic" which means a teaching primer on a subject. One of my all time favorites is "merkin" which is on George Carlin's extended list of dirty words, its means a pubic wig!! I've been trying to slip that one into a memo at work for 20 years!!

I bet that sold in about 30 seconds after the first person who knew what it was found it.
