    and the toddler who thinks it's frightfully funny to yap the same word over and over each time an adult talks to them:

    "Now eat your greens, Sassy, they'll do you good"

    "YAC!"

    "You won't get any ice cream until you've finished them!"

    "YAC!"

    etc etc

    Beware the geek trap. Take a look at Urban Dictionary's definition of 'geek';

    "The people you pick on in high school and wind up working for as an adult."

    According to estimates by the Council on Foreign Relations, "one kilogram of well placed sulfur in the stratosphere would roughly offset the warming effect of several hundred thousand kilograms of carbon dioxide.

    Plankton (πλαγκτός) - consists primarily of krill, copepods, little jellyfish and cretins. You will also find slimey worms, eukaryotic protists and brainless organisms depending upon where you look.
