Then there's my more paranoid side, seeing that you are a real live Lexicographer (I think you are the first I've run across)... did I misspell it? Looks okay.

Is it misused? Seems reasonable based on dictionary.com:

Quote:
con·sen·sus Audio pronunciation of "consensus" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kn-snss) n.

1. An opinion or position reached by a group as a whole: “Among political women... there is a clear consensus about the problems women candidates have traditionally faced” (Wendy Kaminer). See Usage Note at redundancy.
2. General agreement or accord: government by consensus.
But you certainly would know better than me!
