A Word That Isn't

Apparently, "interferent" isn't a word. Aww!

It's that much longer to write "interfering species" (where "species" might be replaced by "ion" or whatever) rather than "interferent". *Sigh*

My project report is so going to be over its word limit. There is only background information and introductions in the report, and already its at 1500 words. Maximum word limit: 2000. Aggravating, that is (or, more accurately, that will be).

[Edited]
Felix seems to be referring to this particular comic. It raises some...interesting points. Too bad I can't really change the imposed limits - the Powers That Be might actually check.
