Here are the batch of defs for KLEPHT, of which one is correct. Sans
recourse to a dictionary, please vote for two of these before 6 a.m.
EST on Wednesday Nov 12. Thanks!
1. unclean
2. a brigand
3, Stolen goods
4. taken; stolen
5. Named or titled
6. [Scot.] Known as.
7. Engaged to marry.
8. supposedly; attributed to
9. [Ar.] a kind of sash worn under a robe
10. a stratospheric lightning discharge.
11. mystical straight line between features of landscape.
12. ash and debris ejected by a volcano.
13. [onomat] the snort made by a charging rhinoceros
14. of livestock, firm and well-fattened; an attractive woman
(Ger.)
15. The sound a wet finger makes when removed from the neck of a
two liter Coca-Cola bottle.
16. a small drum using the stiffened skin of a wolf or bear as the
sounding surface.
17. A transparent fabric used as a drop in the theater to create
special effects of lights or atmosphere
18. A symbol often used in ancient Egypt, consisting of a cross
with four equal arms and a circle attached at the top.
19. The motto (an acronym of Kindness Lets Every Person Hear Truth)
of the quasi-religious 19th century Truth Positivism movement.
Note above, as dealer I did not find the similar defs to be quite
combinable for what I consider proper reasons.
Thanks!

Hi Dave,
Avoiding all defs that might or might not have been combined, I'll go for
two noisy ones:
> 10. a stratospheric lightning discharge.
> 16. a small drum using the stiffened skin of a wolf or bear as the
> sounding surface.
Best, Hugo

Even though I think the klepto connection is way too obvious, I'm
still going to take 3 and then I might as well take its sqaure too -
so that's 3 and 9.

Yes I was wondering why you didn't combine 13 and 15...
