[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. Of course some of them act dumb -- they're often *students*, for heaven's sake. -- (Terry Pratchett, alt.fan.pratchett)
