My sixth-grade teacher (oh-so-many years ago) used to tell us "If the most interesting thing you can say or write about a subject is that it is "interesting," consider how boring you might be to your audience." Then she would point to the shelf full of dictionaries and thesauri. She was a dynamic and memorable teacher in many ways.
