Hi John,

I believe none of these defs. So I'll just throw my votes at the two most
unlikely candidates:

3: [Malay] about 38.3 pounds of tin.

and

11: a kind of snuff from Martinique

Best, Hugo

[Tim Bourne]

2 and 14, please.

9 because it's Scot and 11 because it's "a kind of" and those defs always
deserve votes.

[Russ Heimerson]

I'll go for #2 because it sounds reasonable, and #11 because it say 'a
kind of'.

None of these is the slightest bit believable, least of all 6 and 11.
