n: a person who may not be fast moving or fast talking but who is making a difference in the world in their own way (possibly quietly and/or nearly imperceptibly). Akin to a trailblazer, except at a more relaxed pace. Responsive to snacks, kindness, reason, naps.
(n.) - the print edition of the daily newspaper which arrives in the morning on your doorstep with news that is already old and stale by at least 12 hours
"I am sick and tired of reading the snailpaper edition of the New York Times! By the time it arrives, the front page is already old news. I much prefer reading the Times online website with the up-dated news as it happens."
