Hutch's SECOND New Word

[hutch at bewellnet.com]

Pierre (Sounds like harakiri or vomiting to me. Or maybe it's what the starfish does, turning its stomach inside out.) and Elliott [Looks like it ought to mean "bellying out", or perhaps "opening the belly" (ex + venter/tris)] both knew eventration:

..... eventration - n. - 1. A protrusion of abdominal viscera through the abdominal
.......... wall 2. Disembowelment

They got both meanings.  David Randall put forth an amusing one that won't likely fit with my next word, so I figured I would share it with you:

..... eventration - n. - 1. the process by which European Union bureaucrats predict
.......... unpleasant eventualities and come up with new regulations with which to
.......... prevent them. 2. the process by which European Union bureaucrats predict
.......... unpleasant eventualities and ignore them, hoping they'll go away.

So, for another try, how about "desuetude". There may or may not be multiple definitions of this word.

Blessed Be,
Hutch
