*BENEFITS OF A GOOD VOCABULARY* I recently called an old engineering buddy & asked what he was working on lately... He replied that he was working on “aqua-thermal treatment of ceramics, aluminum & steel under a constrained environment.” I was impressed until, upon further inquiry, I learned that he was washing dishes with hot water under his wife’s supervision.
