It seems that the addition of unnecessary syllables has become a mark of intelligence and sophistication.

Another mark of intelligence and sophistication is the use of "more educated-sounding" words in place of what is correct. The most glaring example in the shooting world is the use of "velocity" when "speed" is what is being discussed.

Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

Happily Trapped In the Past (Thanks, Joe)

Not only a less than minimally educated person, but stupid and out of touch as well.
