"This dictionary, however, is a most useful work."

And if you're wondering where the "an eel in the fundamental mud" tag comes from, I point you, gleefully, to [The Devil's Dictionary Dot Com:], which has Ambrose Bierce's The Devil's Dictionary, not merely online, but hypertexted in an elegant and intelligent way. (Check POLITICIAN. *g*)

I am so geeked by this, it's a little embarrassing.
