Hugo and Mike get two points each - I gave up after two hours trying to find their defs.

I looked up the real definition after I voted. Turns out my definition was the same as the real definition, so that's why I saw it in the list.
If you had found it, you would have combined it.

(And I'll gladly take the dealer points; thanks!)

The "wine" part is so obvious that it has to be wrong, but I'll fall into that trap anyhow with 5 and 7. (Granted, 7 sounds really odd, I can't imagine anyone doing that, but those Germans ...)

ATT refused my attempt to mail you a definition. I got a message informing you that delivery of my mail had failed.

After that you posted your definition list and because I thought I saw my definition in there I figured you had, somehow, received my definition anyway.
But that's just coincidence. What I thought was my definition was in reality the real definition.

No harm done. Just a lot of confusion.

I'll shut up now.
