I suppose I'll have to pull myself out of this round since I came across 'sogennant' in an article I read this weekend--and it was very evident what it meant by context.

So, Hogmaster-for-This-Round Bingley, I won't cast a vote.

This brings in a whole nother element to Hogwash voting! What's WW been reading about? Shakespeare. Comedies, tragedies, and histories! Ergo, it must be c. [/spurious logic that may prove to be worth a try!]

That's it--I'm going with jheem. (And Bub, if you have deliberately misled me by voting for your own incorrect def., then I shall want a word in private.) H

I think everyone who entered has voted now but for connie -- I hope this doesn't help her too much.

a) entirely too many words here; must be an amalgam
b) it isn't ironic
c) ?
d) sounds like soggy
e) did grapho enter?? ;)
f) is there actually such a muscial concept that needs a word?
g) ? (musick's got this one covered)
h) thinking of soi-dissant, jheem?
i) sogennant <> stagnant? naah
j) ? (no votes, too passionless?)

so I'm left with c/g/j

f'babe spuriously agreed with TEd on c? this may have been a stroke of genius. I shall plonk for c and commence a jeremiad if it turns up 'j'.
