Re: He got off lightly compared to Tufty.

I'm fully aware of the more modern uses of the term "cretin", but none of those seem to apply to wildlife doing wildlife things in wildlife time. Thus I assumed TOA meant the archaic usage ... barring some new-fangled usage that I am unaware of. Thus my question.

While you asked about other word usage, I can't be arsed reply since it had naught to do with my question.
