    For the uninitiated. (pinched from Wikipedia)..

    The longest word in any of the major English language dictionaries is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, a word which refers to a lung disease contracted from the inhalation of very fine silica particles, specifically from a volcano. Research has discovered that this word was originally a hoax; medically, it is the same as silicosis. It has since been used in a close approximation of its originally intended meaning, lending at least some degree of validity to its claim.

    .....and in my 30 year career I've only ever seen one sufferer.
    Or you could have just asked the resident geologist...

    silly me.

    BTW; Q for Per, I have thought long and hard about it but wouldn't it be possible to use AKAVITT as a propellant for a mach 5 shoulder launched missile?
    That's exactly what you get if you rip a fart the day after a serious Akkevitt-blot. Just add matches and a friendly shoulder.
    Have a nice trip!
