I'm picking a new hobby (or habit?)

My vocabulary, contrary to what some might think, is very limited. Since I use the web so often and since there is a lot to read, I often come across words that are very familiar but meaningless to me. Being lazy, I hardly use references like WordWeb and Answers, and even when I do, I seldom carry the meaning beyond the context since my memory is perpetually defunct.

Enter the ubiquitous Microsoft Excel. I hope to shake off my lethargy and use references to ferret semantics and record them in Excel.

Maybe 20 years will be enough to make the difference conspicuous.

This is what Bertrand Russell said about religion...

Religion is based, I think, primarily and mainly upon fear. It is partly the terror of the unknown and partly, as I have said, the wish to feel that you have a kind of elder brother who will stand by you in all your troubles and disputes. ... A good world needs knowledge, kindliness, and courage; it does not need a regretful hankering after the past or a fettering of the free intelligence by the words uttered long ago by ignorant men.
