a:link {color: #0000FF;} a:visited {color: #800080;} body { font-size: 12pt; font-family: Verdana; color: #000000; background-color: FFFFFF; margin-top: 0px; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-right: 0px; }

I don't see my definition, and I'm sure everyone would have voted for it — not!



 



I'll vote for these:



 



8. A white-flowered plant of the violet family, Viola labradorica, with medicinal properties. 



and



10.. The gill-like structures of efts and other amphibian larvae

Judy, I did receive it so I must have lost it transferring it from excel to
gmail. I hope this problem doesn't become a major complication. I will
award you 2 points for my error.
