| I hadn't thought of it before, but he's right. "Expert" is way over-used these days.
It's funny because I was just talking to Shu tonight about a phrase that's way over-used in sports: "Step up." |

| LOL. He's so right. I also enjoyed the link to the Guardian's piece at http://www.guardian.co.uk/scie...entist/2010/dec/07/1 quote: ... Marie Clair, an expert in being a public relations officer for the Plain English campaign
Build a man a fire and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life.
