I thought this one would appeal to some of you... ;)

sciential

adj 1: relating to or producing knowledge or science
*2: having efficient knowledge : capable

*On the value of having a library at hand, Coleridge wrote: "“There is no way of arriving at any sciential end but by finding it at every step.”"
