    precipitate verb |prɪˌsɪpɪteɪt| [ trans. ] 1 cause (an event or situation, typically one that is bad or undesirable) to happen suddenly, unexpectedly, or prematurely ... • cause (drops of moisture or particles of dust) to be deposited from the atmosphere or from a vapor or suspension.

    Anyway, I'm glad we got that fixed. I was beginning to think it should be "They're Wheres?"

    Default Have to get this off my chest...

    The words:

    TAUT
    TAUGHT
    TAUNT

    ...are not interchageable. Use the right word not its second cousin.

    I feel better now. Thank you.
