This reveals one of the things that continues to draw me in, the sheer love 
of cool words and clever wordplay.  As a Technical Writer by day and wannabe 
Creative Writer by night, I find that so many people regard words as blunt 
instruments rather than tools, obstacles rather than treasures.  It is a 
breath of fresh air, I tell you, to rub shoulders with people that retain 
the capacity to marvel at them and revel with them.
