Nazi Blaines?

As in David Blaine? It's a bit of a reach, I know, but it's a double insult as it assumes they know nothing about teh magicks as opposed to tricks and conjuring and massive self-satisfaction.

I was thinking "quacks" too, but that's for doctors really.

Does anyone have a good synonym for 'somewhat'?
It's such a nice little phrase but I overuse it ...er.... somewhat.

Thanks Mist,
Kind of but more of a word used as an interjection like 'perhaps' or 'indeed' but having the adverbial qualifying tone of use as 'somewhat'.
Hmm.

Those are all quite good. My vocabulary is beginning to strain a little having written so much lately its an effort not to be overly repetitive. Cheers.
