> same video, different ears <

As no one cared to find a 14 letter word that fits in, I'll finish the thing off neatly with:

panidiomorphic;

of igneous rocks ---------- Collins English dict.2007

that's why they call me the Rock of Gibralter

oh, so it's fourteen-letter words that fascinate you today..

1. zeugmatography
2. zingiberaceous
3. zinziberaceous
4. zooarchaeology
5. zoroastrianism
6. zygobranchiate
7. zygophyllaceae

that's just the Zs, mind.

at least two of them are trivial:
zingiberaceous : zinziberaceous
zinziberaceous : zingiberaceous

zooarchaeology
zoroastrianism

These two I know, the rest besides the two trivials is nowhere to be found, not even in your WWftD.

I can see trivial pursuit as your 14 letter definition
for the whole lot. "How's that?" they asked the umpire.

>nowhere to be found

now that's patently untrue, or I couldn't have found them!

Okay, here're some 15:

zeugobranchiata
zincongraphical
zoogeographical
zoophytological

he he he... big surprise... I cheated! I tried to make the text white with the URL (so you more upstanding peeps wouldn't have to see it and burn your retinas...) but it didn't work. Could someone tell me how? Thanks! :0)

Sure--just click on Reply in the post you're replying to, instead of using the Quick Reply box at the bottom of the page. You'll get a whole range of special things to use; the big A will give you many colors to choose from. Put your text inside the brackets.

EDIT: Put your text in between the two sets of brackets.

in a bow to redundancy, you can even do the same from Quick Reply by clicking Switch to Full Reply Screen, then highlight the text you want to mask, and click the A (Color some text) button and choose white.
