Believe it or not on this day in 1884 the Oxford English Dictionary was published for all to read. From here the power of words as we know them have never been the same. We are constantly using the dictionary and whether we know it or not the current updated version known as "spell check" is also a dictionary. The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) holds a staggering count of 60,000 words. So let us tip our hats to one of the greatest books ever created.
