get a life.

Voltage Spike,

I was wondering what you thought about that distro (in header). From what I
ve 
heard the hardware detection on it is excellent. If you think that is a good

idea I will get another cdrom to be a dedicated cdrom drive. If you do not 
think it is a good idea please give me the reasons (not that I doubt you, 
buddy, it is for my own edification).

Edify (trans. verb)
1. archaic (a) build (b) establish.
2. to instruct to improve especially in moral and religious knowledge.

Edification would be the 'act of Edifying'. Edifying would be usage of
the verb above (edify).

I believe that this was proper use of the word edification both in
context and syntax. Surely I am not an English Scholar though.

I knew it was correct too but I liked the alternate meaning better.
