The main reason I continue to use a hard copy thesaurus is that I have
yet to find an on-line thesaurus organized by concept rather than word
(admittedly, I haven't tried too hard). I find that a thesaurus
organized by concept helps me to refine my meaning while a
word-organized one isn't nearly as useful.
