Maybe you can use it to replace tedium. Just a thought.

You didn't spring Minerva-like from me!

Master SoG, four days beyond a fortnight past, I sprang Minerva-like from the mind of reesetee on the pages of paua, abetted by uselessness and mollusque.

"You have done well, grasshopper!" as Master Po used to say.

However, I haven't a clue what you are talking about!

Master SoG, this is precisely the weakness that the wordworm and I are exploiting to evade virus and worm detectors. She has proved to be quite cunning, removing the "c" from covert to escape from under containment on the c list. She is now in ninja training.

Under guise of woodworm, she infiltrated the Google lexicon, and inserted detartrated in their lookup dictionary. If you enter "detartrat", Google now asks "Did you mean: detartrated". She also entered the Scriptorium at OED headquarters and found a citation for demidiate, from The Entomological Dictionary of 1913, where it is defined as "half-round".

Are there other missions you wish us to undertake?

Definitely not one for Sog's Ark!
