    Thumbs up For the spelling Nazis and those who want to know...............

    The above is a good website to have on hand. Even tells how popular the word is that you're using. Mine were pretty well dated.

    What? I merely posted this as an aid towards knowledge.

    you can also use google for it, in the google search box "define: whatever word you want"

    you don't need the quotes.

    You can point a poster toward knowledge, but you can't make him think.

    And which definition was it that applies?
    Definition of DATED


    1 : provided with a date <a dated document>


    2 : outmoded, old-fashioned
    Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H.L. Mencken

    The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.― H.L. Mencken

    I like One Look because it searches multiple dictionaries and definitions depend on context.
