Sheesh. For every reply I received to my question, "What is OED?" I got
another like this:

>>Okay, you can stop telling me what OED is... I've received about a dozen

>Although you may have received dozens of replies, no one posted them on the

>I was quite curious myself. Could you fill me in??

So, for all those who missed it (is there a FAQ for this list???), "OED" =
Oxford English Dictionary, generally considered to be "THE" manual/bible for
the English language. All 22/24 (I've seen both numbers) full volumes of it.


Time to pick up that new bookshelf I've been wanting...
