[Lexicog] Definition of Retirement: Death

[bolstar1]

Bill, did you know that there is no such thing for a lexicographer or 
philologist or etymologist as "retirement?" Think about it -- since 
language is always evolving, doesn't the true lexicographer or 
philologist or etymologist have his/her hands full for a lifetime? 
      Keep up your good work.....and tell us what you did to your 
students.
