Good site, Bingley. Thanks. Read there the term potsherd, also, for the ostrakon.

tsuwm: Like leitmotifs in opera, there are those verbal ones here that play on the WAD board, cleave and cleave providing one of them, though not a major one. In fact, the various leitmotifs on this board help shape it into a more satisfying whole, to my taste. I will not pursue the shaping of this monosterous one because my guess was just plain incorrect. But, I'll alert you, that sometime, somewhere, and probably often, the etymological road in retrograde will lead me to a common nexus, and that will be fun. Genesis has its own allure. Thanks for explaining your comment about comical and comatose, by the way. Hope I haven't caused you to become comatose. (hmmmm....comatose and tomatoes is awfully close--off to seeks some roots, tra la!)

Best regards,
Dub
