"Conversating" 


?
Tim, the use of a “Southernism” was done specifically to set the light, good-old-boy, friendly, blue-collar tenor of the missive that followed. It is a literary device employed by many throughout history—Charles Dickens comes immediately to mind. My intent was to establish a tone more along the lines of Larry-the-Cable-Guy than along the lines of William F. Buckley.
Immediately following was another literary device known as hyperbole—or something grandly exaggerated specifically for effect.
Haz and I did not, in actual fact, solve any of the world’s problems. If you check your morning paper, you may confirm this for yourself. We have difficulty enough solving our own personal problems without taking on the entire world.
Finally, “conversating” was used not because either Haz or I suffer from vocabulary reduction syndrome. Between the two of us, we know virtually every word that is knowable. It’s not at all surprising that the good people at Roget’s may call us when stumped for a word. (There’s that hyperbole, again.)
I will plead guilty to an indiscriminate usage of my rather vast vocabulary and I pledge to you, Tim, to try and keep it more in tune with the half vast verbiage with which you are more comfortable.

Submitted for your consideration in the friendliest possible manner,
