Random Useless Knowledge

In case anyone was wondering:

alectryoophiobotanopegobydrorhabdocrithoaleuroalphi

tohalomolybdoclerobeloaxinocoscinodactyliogeolithop

essopsephocatoptrotephraoneirochiroonychodactyloari

thstichooxogeloscogastrogyrocerobletonooenosapulinaniac

is actually a word. It contains 310 letters and means someone who practices divination or forecasting by means of phenomena, interpretation of acts, or other manifestations related to animate or inanimate objects and appearances such as various animal behaviors, dreams, palmistry, wands, ring suspension and a number of other methods. Don't ask why I decided to post this, but I thought everyone should now share in the addition to my knowledge.

For more information on the 9-year-old child that learned to spell this word on a dare (challange) from his 2nd grade teacher, see this article. Isn't the Internet grand.
