Some of us are slower than others, I'll admit. I haven't heard of "punditocracy", and I don't even know how much else there is out there of which I haven't heard.

Some day I'll write a very, very thick book - "What I've Learned Since I Knew It All". Believe it or not - at one time I DID know it all. Life was easier with just rods. Then the cones develop, and that world-view disappears.

There are some useful words which may not have hit the dictionary, yet, though. For instance,Kleptocracy.

Darned if I've ever heard of a "punditocracy", though. Maybe a country ruled by humorists communicating in Morse code? Seems strained.

By the way, there have been a couple of middle-of-the-road posts on this board lately that weren't mine. Camel, tents, and all that!!

Cheers back atcha, and beers, leers, dears, tears, and all else which makes life worth living!
