"A thousand years from now, "rather" might be a common lower-case noun for a pompous incompetent who misses some obvious flaw in his plans."

I suggest we skip the 1000 year wait and begin using it. Most of us here know what a clymer is and those that joined FR later can always rather their story and claim they were here then.

How about "danrather", to make it distinctive - and like algore :-)

Rather's first "Rather" will conclude with the line, "...spend more time with my family."

I sorta like "ratheresque" and I'm not waiting 1000 years to use it.

Dan Rather is now the Ted Baxter of CBS - without the quiet dignity
