OED

[jrtom]

I have just discovered that Google, unlike Microsoft, does not have a site license for the Oxford English Dictionary website.

This has occasioned my most significant regret for my decision to join Google.

(That is to say, things are generally going quite well. More on this later, probably.)

But I, for one, would not be quite sure what to make of your post without the mitigating third sentence, as I can imagine how lack of open access to the OED could be a deal-breaker for you. :)

Right, but that's my point: the third sentence is (clearly, to me) part of the context.

(Honestly, I enjoy the OED but it's not actually that _important_ to me. :) )
