mc5 - AVMA Take 2

Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

flerdle

please excuse my badly mangled second-last sentence up there...

[Projoy] a subclause -- NO :-)
[Projoy] footnotes -- NO.

CdM

[Projoy] I have gone through footnotes and other similar ideas in my head, but then I get stuck on the fact that there are also very early instances of the elephant.

CdM

Is it some kind of definition or explanation?

flerdle

[CdM] some kind of definition or explanation -- YES! *audience cheers enthusiastically*

Projoy

a citation or quotation?

Projoy

Scrub that, is it a definition in law, i.e. appearing in a contract or piece of legislation?

Phil

A dictionary definition?

flerdle

[Projoy] citation/quotation -- NO, but it can be a very important part of some elephants
[Projoy] a definition in law/contract/legislation -- NO... *audience holds its collective breath*
[Phil] a dictionary definition -- CLOSE ENOUGH!

Raak

So, what were the words on the card?

flerdle

The words on the card are actually "a dictionary entry". You can check the history of the dictionary in the wikipedia. Everything else can be seen above. *audience claps for everyone, especially CdM and Raak, with special cheers for Projoy's perseverence*

*retires*

Phil

I suddenly spotted the quotes in It is not "a dictionary" and realised there must be some significance.
Dunno how to follow that epic, but I'll try.
