Me again. Somebody said ""You may want wikt:bard."" Heaven forbid! I'm no lexicographer! Anything of that ""wikt"" form isn't of the least interest to me. I'd rather die! I may lose my temper and go there some day, but I'll wait, thank you very much, for a decade or two and pop in to see what's happened. Nothing of any interest, I suspect, because I know that just because Wikipedia was a great idea doesn't mean that (just) anybody can write a decent dictionary. I'll stick to my own collection of expensive, standard, popular, erudite, unabridged dictionaries, which at present stands firmly fixed at zero. Meanwhile, I'll continue my typical habits, which seem to be working quite well. As for the bard article we're discussing, just because I have opinions doesn't mean anybody should respect them. I'm more the creative type. Let the opinionated folk get you riled up about things, not me.   "
