"Plethorically resources?" What do you suppose they meant? | |||

Well, Dictionary.com gives two definitions for the adjective plethoric: 1. overfull; turgid; inflated: a plethoric, pompous speech. 2. of, pertaining to, or characterized by plethora. I'll take a guess that they meant the second, but used the adverbial form, plethorically instead. 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. | |||

Arnie, I suspect they didn't have a clue as to what they were saying! Here's the link to the site - it's at the bottom center: http://www.bell.lib.in.us/ | ||

Agreed. I took a quick look round the site and noticed several instances of poor writing or phrasing. It might have been an idea to show the text to the library staff before publishing it ... 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. | |||
