Additional Information: "This investigation of the material presence and hidden biases in language began in 2002 when Mel Bochner found an updated version of Roget’s Thesaurus that included, among the 'proper' synonyms for any given entry, a significant number of colloquialisms and, on occasion, obscenities. This was a new development for a commonly-used reference book and it intrigued him."
