I can't find "epuration" at all of my usual haunts. I've tried: webster encarta oxford webopedia answers.com onlinedictionary.biz (I found a one word definition here, but I am not convinced of the correctness of it) --------------------

Invisibility Cloak Group: Formidable Ferret Posts: 1726 Joined: 30-October 03 From: Worcester MA. Member No.: 10	epuration (ep-yuh-RAY-shun) noun Purification, especially removal of officials or politicians believed to be disloyal; purge. Google it, plus "definition," and you'll always get to AWAD, which is where I dig them up. wink For those who want to know: [From French epuration, epurer, to purify + ation.] AND: It contains all vowles, aeiou, once and only once. -------------------- "Quid rides?

I like that word's definition. Long live epuration! Also, thanks to Evlpez and Cherabela. I love the way you set this story up. I'm having wicked good fun with my submission today. --------------------

Access may have been restricted while we negotiated a proper ransom of Pixie Stix and chocolate. We apologize for the inconvenience, and would like to assure all Ferrets that their site is safe and sound. (Well, except for the doxies lurking in the server...) Due to this unfortunate series of events, and since we no longer have access to the Time Turners from the Department of Mysteries, submissions for Round Three will be accepted until 10:55 pm Eastern Zone on Thursday September 8th. -------------------- ' Project Ferret - Transfiguring Fans into Writers since 2003! .

Invisibility Cloak Group: Formidable Ferret Posts: 1726 Joined: 30-October 03 From: Worcester MA. Member No.: 10	facedesk Before Cat and I finalized word choice, we made sure they were 'googlesafe.' Any one of them, if typed into google, + the word "definition", will get you an answer. (An online dictionary usually works too) And, remember, friendly mods are always ready to answer questions like "What's a costermonger?" and "What's Latin for 'wooly slipper'? -------------------- "Quid rides?
