RBF DEFINITIONS
Advertising:

"Advertising's progressive squandering and ultimately lethal
abuse and misuse of the rich word tools of the second millenium,
Anno Domini's langauge wealth may be surprisingly one of those
evolutionary
'blessings in disguise that man is not
looking for and does not realise has come about to interrupt
his stumbling into extinction and to set him again on the
path to successful fulfillment of humanity's functioning
in Universe. The assassination of the meanings in the
twentieth century word wealth of humanity by the corporate-
business advertising may be Tennyson's fulfillment of
Himself by God 'in many ways, Lest one good custom (our
honored vocabulary-- vocable-ary) should corrupt the
world."
