I haven't bothered with the dictionary because I've got all the individual
word lists in a database with keyword search.  I was going to wait until it
comes out in bound book form (it's too big to print out) -- although I
suppose that's problematic since you need feedback before it's published.  I
have glanced through it and I like the format.

I didn't catch "envies" because I was searching for "envy" and I simply
didn't think of "jealous".  My search engine doesn't tell me about similar
adjacent words, unfortunately.

I liked your suggestion for 'seven years ago', too.  Thanks.
