OP Dear AnnaStrophic: I have looked at the Weekly themes a number of times, but never have seen any comments on Today's Word. I don't often think of something likely to interest the group, but I do think that some of the other members might.For instance not too long ago, Today's Word was "barrator". I'll bet that nobody has seen that word anywhere else. But in several sea stories, I have seen the word "barratry" used as the Admiralty Law term for criminal conspiracy to sink a ship and its cargo to fraudulently obtain insurance benefits. Not a big deal, but perhaps of more general interest that "barrator". I'll bet the group could come up with some really interesting comments on Todays Word. Just a lone voice crying in the wilderness. (Sob,Sob) Bill Hunt
