It would take all night to give my suggestions for the list, and there are people here who are brighter and more qualified both to provide the words, AND the definitions with appropriate websites...

I disagree. The people most qualified to provide the words are those (as you) who have questions about them.

So, provide a list of words and let others try to give the explanation.

Yipee.... Takes time to do

Yipee....

Takes time to do it right, and I have some gardening to finish up before it gets hot.

Anybody else who wants to contribute or do it all, go right ahead and start. Alphabet order would be best, so it doesn't matter what you start with - it'll find its place.

What a wonderful

What a wonderful resource!!

Jord, I never saw this post of yours till today, and looked up the link. I will take more time to look at all of it. It goes beyond my simpler questions, but goes into a lot of detail and I didn't think there would be a "glossary in such a neat format. I could easily see it posted with the Web Sites listed on the GridRepublic Desktop with all the other information. Where else do you have this posted? It should be one of the pinned ones in any one of the message groups...

I genuinely appreciate your making the list and sending me the link...
Very neat too, the alphabatizing in groups, etc.

What a huge amount of work that was for you.
