Google "fermenting discord" and then "fomenting discord" and see what you get. The former is a possible construction, I suppose, but the latter is what you probably should have put. Then again, I have learned over the years that it is risky to plumb the depths of the mind of Ed.... :D

Haruo was quite clever in his handling of your misspelling (or misuse) of the word "fermenting."

Fermenting discord? Fomenting discord? Commenting on discord...

William and Haruo, you guys have just earned the first ever "Wordsmith" Golden Spurs. Congratgulations to both of you...

As of 8:48 CST tonight, "fermenting discord" returned the BaptistLife forums as the 3rd ranked search.

That and some pocket change will get you coffee just about anywhere but Starbucks.

You might want to check out the listings on the FOOD NETWORK to see if Paula Deen and Alton Brown have some ideas about updating your discord for post-holiday fermenting. :wink:

Will be interesting to see how her recent column in the Newsweek blogs plays there in wake of all this disturbance in Georgia.

Timothy George may have some explainin to do when this one is over.
