    Help me CP, you're my only hope. I'm looking for four words or phrases that convey the following: - Coordinate [bring together] - Break through [make an advancement] - General consensus [most people agreeing] - Provide backup [help someone else do the work] Pretty please with plums on top, any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. [edit] Added usage. [edit x 2] Got my words: - Accommodator - ground-breaking / Pioneering - Consensus building - Auxiliary / facilitating Your suggestions + thesaurus = inspiration.


    Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. or "Drink. Get drunk. Fall over." - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre Have a bit more patience with newbies.

                Anyone who uses the terms synergy or "game changer" needs to be removed from the premises with extreme prejudice. Horrid, horrid little terms that demonstrate the user's brain is in sleep mode. X|
