		<description><![CDATA[Businessdictionary.com sent me the definition for ‘sustainability’. I was pleased.

		<description><![CDATA[I have been considering my prospects in editorial work. Humanity will always need people who can make sense of business speak and political nonsense and rewrite it in plain English.

As a struggling editor, I thought this might help me understand the words. Or should I say: “enable me to be better able to further my understanding of a whole raft of business words and [...]]]></description>
