Well ... my favorite and longest-known member of the CABE ...
YOU have come up with an idea that can not only benefit
the newbie ... but the crustacean as well.


Not only that .. it seems citizens can have a bit o' fun with
'nearly all of the twenty-four letters in our National Alph-
abet.


.I do, however, offer this observation ... When Contributing a
.series of LETTERS and THE REAL WORLD MEANING ....


.Use ONLY ONE .Series Of Letters AND The Real-World Meaning In A Single Entry

.The Impact upon the "Search-Doer'' (when entering seemingly-random letters
..into the SEARCH BAR -- then CLICKING on the Little Magnifying-Glass) will have
..Her / Him saying, " GTIS = Gee This Is Swell ".


Thank You, Paul .....
