OP I went back and read some old threads and came across the regrettably short one y'all had discussed about Tod Sloan. That sent me looking online for tod, and then to toddy, and toddy to arrack, then to rack, and under rack I found something else blown by the wind, so I thought it might find a nice comfy place here:
[what else?]RACK, n. [See Reek.]
Properly, vapor; hence, thin flying broken clouds, or any portion of floating vapor in the sky.
The winds in the upper region, which move the clouds above, which we call the rack
Sorry--I couldn't post the link because it appeared to take up too much room...
