I enjoy hearing people with good vocabularies speak. Jim Harper who I referred to in Identity is Not Fixed is one who uses vocabulary well, not attempting to make himself look more important, rather to communicate concisely.
I am listening to a Channel9 interview and one of the speakers used the term "hugely". Okay, okay, it is in the dictionary. But, for me it is like drawing fingernails across a chalk board. I am not enjoying recent the increase of this word in common diction.
