"defenestration" literally means "removing windows", it was a sort of pun for the cunning linguists here.

Hm. According to my grades I'm a cunning linguist but I have to confess--I didn't get it. I often wander into threads I don't get and ponder them...sometimes I even say something stupid. It's all for the children.

PPS--a fenestrated drape, in medical-lingo, does indeed mean a drape with a hole in it--a 'window', if you will. It is usually used to stitch up fingers and...ya know...other *ahem* appendages.

:cool:

Oh, greeat. This is a wonderful sign. We're sure to see refereneces to "M$" and Userfriendly comics in no time. Pardon me while I prepare myself by installing an unheard of Linux distribution on my toaster oven.

I am so not voting on this poll. Should I Google "Cowboy Neal?":D

"The defenestration of me shall be answered by the infenestration of this brick."

Parafenestration is when you throw the guy at the window and your aim is rather off.
