Poor Ray got so agitated about this word that he even mixed up the postings:
> *Keith found the root in "olos" from the Greek. Chris found that more > likely but wouldn't hear anything from Keith so he heard Steven. Actually, as anyone can verify in the archive, my posting was sent 3 hours _before_ Keith's, so Ray's accusation that I "wouldn't hear anything from Keith so [I] heard Steven" is incorrect, not to say libellous... What I found more likely was that the word "wholistic" has little to do with "holy", as people simply omit the w for the reasons given by Stephen. Now, Ray says that "whole", "holy" and "heilig" all come from the Teutonic "hailoz" (which can't be found in Google -- is your spelling correct?). But what about "ganz" ?? Das Wirrwarr ist ganz heillos. ;-) Chris _______________________________________________ Futurework mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://scribe.uwaterloo.ca/mailman/listinfo/futurework
