and yes, shoshonna is right, there has been quite the
groundswell in the outlands against the 'crat' words. one
event went so far as to have a 'blame-o-crat', but i
suspect that was humor, considering the person. 8)
however, no one should be beating you about the head and
shoulders regarding the use of the psuedo-word.
the english language has a number of perfectly good words
for the head honcho in the kitchen such as head cook or
feast steward (tho my husband likes H.B.I.C. when
referring to me - i don't know if i resemble that remark
or not...)
