Flammable and inflammable are synonyms. That was an extra credit question on my English quiz in grade school, and I got it wrong. I was very disappointed.

So do I, when adding additional information.
Perhaps we can relieve some agony by alternating with 'additionally', 'also' or even get more dramatic and use the infomercial form... "Wait, there's more!!"

That last "in" is like nails on a blackboard every time I hear it!
