I am the one in the middle

Will anyone confess to getting befuddled with academic jargon?

Visible to anyone in the world

Carrying on this debate which I started last week in the student cafe I am interested to know if anyone particularly in education or academic circles will admit to being confused or put off from reading certain articles/emails /journals because of the amount of JARGON used.

Is it necessary or has it become a professional necessity, not only in academia but in most professions.

I would love to hear your stories and comments.
