@cicerone imposter,

I pronounced 'debacle' incorrectly for more than half of my life, and I'm fairly old now. I think it was Deb on a2k that set me straight. I knew the word, but only from my reading.

Cass Mastern lived for a few years and in that time he learned that the world is all of one piece. He learned that the world is like an enormous spider web and if you touch it, however lightly, at any point, the vibration ripples to the remotest perimeter and the drowsy spider feels the tingle and is drowsy no more but springs out to fling the gossamer coils about you who have touched the web and then inject the black, numbing poison under your hide. (p.200)
R Warren, All the King's Men
