This round, every single def received at least one vote. That unfortunately
includes the real one: My potential D0 was spoiled by Millie Morgan, who
alone guessed that the real definition of PROCERITY is #8: "height of
stature; tallness." Really. Truly. Google it; you'll see.

Each of the human submitters received one, two, or three votes, except for
Steve Graham. Five players picked his ear-wax migration (#16), and he's our
next dealer.

Full details below.

Over to you, Steve!

What a way to end a long dry spell ...

Da woid will be along shortly, after I'm done splitting fire wood for next
winter (at least for today).
