Good Grief! Can you explain that some words are
highly appropriate in personal conversation or even
in stand-up presentations but are also highly
INappropriate in any form of documentation?
You have my deepest sympathy -- I won't even use
"useability" or "capability" if I can help it!

A SME wants me to use these words. He says that they
are
commonly used. What do you think?
