David Langford,

Hello there and a hearty welcome aboard!

Thank you for the cant terms--I'll put up another wanted list after
I've exhausted the OED (ha! OED is never exhausted: mantis loses
patience and eyesight).

Interesting tip re: Schmitz's "Novice."  I'm not (yet) familiar with
the story.  Re: Tick talk, vizcacha made a listing (it should be in
the archives) of Tick's words and phrases just so that we could all
agree on something. <g>
