The word, "gullible" is not to be found in any dictionary published
in England

Are you sure? I don't have a paper one to hand, but when I type
gullible into my mail client the spell checker does not complain about
it. In any case, I was objecting to you "verbing" the adjective :)

Ker-ching!

Never fails. You tell them gullible is not in the dictionary and someone always tells you it is and gives you a link. I wonder if they read the definition they looked up.
