Dr. Bill & WW, I got to wondering about the name of the site, and found: Kokogiak (ko-KO-jee-ak) is a translation of a Native American (Iñupiaq) word describing a great ten-legged white bear. Alternate spellings or pronunciations are 'Qupqugiaq', 'Kiliopak' and 'Kilifvak'. He's got a story that's pretty cool. Oh my gosh--you all have to go to this site ( http://www.kokogiak.com/default.asp) and click on Today is Decadi, the 20th of Fructidor, Year 210 - (better known as Saturday, September 7th, 2002) It tells of a whole new calendar, and look: (The months gained derisive nicknames immediately in Britain as Showery, Flowery, Bowery, Wheaty, Heaty, Sweety, Slippy, Nippy, Drippy, Freezy, Wheezy and Sneezy).
