Default [Dixonary] Round 2826 - BORITY Results

Mike Shefler's definition of currency stability was the clear leader in
natural votes, earning him a healthy 5 points. That makes him the next dealer.
Though Keith Hale's mutual trust inspired just 3 votes, he emerges as the real
winner. Only John Barrs guessed that a bority is a mangrove pole, a meaning,
it is safe to say, that makes no sense to anyone but him, (and I'm the one who
chose the damn word). On the bright side, everyone who submitted a definition
got at least one point.

Take it away, Mike!
