My vocabulary

Okay I always knew I had a weak vocabulary but listening to professors night after night only serves to reinforce my apparent gap in intelligence. (that and having had to take the GRE). So I get a Word of the Day on my Google home page. . He often appears supercilious when he uses those arcane words and refuses to surcease. I think he believes they give his story more versmilitude. Any idea which 4 words were on my webpage???? It sure makes me sound like I know what I am talking about and that I am more educated then I am. Maybe this is the key to being a professor...use big words that no one can remember the meaning to.
