Very cool!! But I'd *really* like to be able to search the whole thing: I've been looking for terms for use in sex scenes I'm writing in this year's NaNoNovel, set in the 1800s, and this would be an excellent source, if I didn't have to search through each letter's entry individually. Still fun, though!

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
