[Dixonary] Round 2956: PIKI - Time to Vote (Repost - read this first)

Hey all... if you haven't already read the older messages, the initial
posting revealed some names. There was a followup posting without names...
but I accidentally deleted that rather than the other one... so now both
are deleted from the website/archive. Although some replies quote the
whole list, so it seems the cat is out of the bag.

Anyway if you want a spoiler free voting round I'm re-posting the list
myself! Sorry for goofing in my attempt to fix another goof.

Here's the original posting, with names removed!



Here are 14 definitions for PIKI. Please vote for 2 for any reason
whatsoever, whether you think it is the real one, it came to you in a
dream, reminds you of your favorite vacation spot, etc. etc.

I am not sure what a reasonable deadline might be, so I'll use Friday,
January 25, at noon, eastern U.S. time.
