RE: [Dixonary] PHEAZAR defs!
Since I have no idea, I'll take 1 and 13 to prove that I read'em all.
I will have very limited Internet access between 11/29 and 12/10, so I will be unavailable to "deal" should that miracle occur.

Re: [Dixonary] PHEAZAR defs!
Sorry, Judy, but this doesn't prove you read them all. It doesn't even prove that you read any of them. It proves only that you looked down the left to find the highest definition number.

12 because it’s most likely to be true and 4 because it’s most likely not to be.

Of the options no one has chosen, these seem the most likely to me to be

Re: [Dixonary] PHEAZAR defs!
Waiting another few hours is NOT going to help. I don't think the final "ar" is related to the English suffix "er," but I'll go for two people anyhow: 7 and 9.
