But ...
at least now a mystery has been solved for me.

I was doing some "thinking" (now totally public, as you can see ... blush)
about that incredible new word of Chris'
when all of a sudden it all just totally vanished.
I figured I must have invented some amazing new keystroke shortcut for
vaporization.

But now I see that somehow
(no idea how)
I actually SENT the thing!!!

Oh how embarrassing!! :(

So ... well, perhaps I'd better not submit any of those fruits of my
research that you've now all SEEN (I hope you liked them ... grrrrrrr)
And if I and when I send another definition to Chris, I'll try to make it a
bit more private. OK?

... but I need to recover first :(
