And today’s word is Titurate: to reduce to fine particles. As in, “you need to triturate the tissue 3-5 times in a 1000 microliter pipette to suspend the cells.” Or, “Spaceman Spiff grabbed his triturator gun and vaporized the vile slime monster.”

Interpretation is the revenge of the intellect upon art.
