last week's word winner:

panglossian

i don't even remember what this word means. according to M-W, it isn't panglossian but Panglossian, being named for some character in some freaking voltaire novel (damn voltaire). but as you may have noticed i am loathed to capitalize anything and my grammar leaves a little something to be desired. but, with 54% of the vote, panglossian is the winner.
