    August 27, 2008: If you have children in school, (from elementary through college) or an office, or you read a lot, or if you are breathing, you should have this dictionary. Unfortunately it contains all of the silly words that modern dictionaries have such as dog and tree, and all of those words that everyone already knows, but I have never looked up a word that I couldn't find. If you own this dictionary others might be fun and good to own, but none will be necessary.
