    yay

    my word was used

    although i didnt get credit like the way the phrase of the day people got credit, but hey...:)

    a new suggestion:
    probe

    isnt it a horrible word ? its sounds just like a probe (whats the word for things sounding like their meaning? that could be a word of the day too)
