I do like the site you pointed to and bookmarked for future use. Looks neat. Thanks so much.
Others who may wonder too, about the definitions of this words, I posted generic bing definitions.
Take care MM.

FYI...

Nonfeasance is a term that describes a failure to act that results in harm to another party.

Malfeasance is any act that is illegal or wrongful. Misfeasance is an act that is legal but improperly performed.
