Elocutionary titan. Today on Car Talk, the Magliozzis were discussing the merits of filling the bed of a truck with water and allowing it to freeze, thereby providing for enhanced handling characteristics on icy roads. The concept was presented by a caller, and was immediately embraced by the brothers, but Ray suggested the use of loose sand or another substance which could not become, in a moment of inertial crisis, a "unified monolithic projectile." The man did not fire this one off with any unusual emphasis - it simply rolled out in the middle of a larger bloc of spoken words, and thus received no special recognition from those present. I hereby salute, formally, one of my favorite users of the English language.
