SERAC proposed
OK. We're not smothered with suggestions, but what we have are clearly highest quality.

Pick one:

SERAC

A) a particular rock formation found in the deepest part of the ocean formed from the high pressures freezing the salt water

B) crystalline formations that occur when superheated liquids are flash cooled under pressure

C) cousin of Spock, nephew of Sarek

D) a yellowish- to reddish-brown aromatic bitter psychedelic gum resin obtained from several trees and shrubs of the genus Seramiphora of Indonesia, New Guinea, and eastern Timor, used as a carminative and a stimulating tonic

E) a large open metal flute with two mouths placed adjacent to each other; the name derives from its inventor, Wilhelm Theodor Seraflöte

F) a small African antelope with long, spiral horns

G) a pinnacle of ice in a landscape full of snow and glaciers

H) a plant with a thick bulbous edible yellow root, eaten in west Africa as a dietary staple

Sorry I didn't send a definition but I'll play anyway.

I'll plump for F though I'd like it to be C.

I will try F.

What I like about Hab is that he doesn't follow the crowd. We have always had numbers, so he takes letters. Wink

So far we have votes for

Anyone else want to venture a guess?

Going, going,, gone.

I'll post the statistics (and a few editorial comments) in a separate thread so I can give it a new title.
