Save The Words
Save The Words -- interesting words that have fallen by the wayside as new dictionaries are published.
Save The Words. Learn their definitions. Use them in memos or Scrabble.
Site says that lexicographers check for what "new" words are showing up in the language and will sometimes add a word back into the dictionaries that had previously been given a pink slip. e.g. wheatgrass

Bertold Brecht:
Everything changes. You can make
A fresh start with your final breath.
But what has happened has happened. And the water
You once poured into the wine cannot be
Drained off again.
