[Facts] Re: I think Gaia is supposed to be working on one for me, too. :) (n/t)
NanaeaI've narrowed the search down to two words (either caora or foisc [f, o-fada, i, s, c]), but which one it is, I have to ask my Gaelige professor. He's a difficult person to get between phone calls, classes and other things he does for the Irish community around here.

Hmmm... I think that "caora" is more pleasing to the eye than "foisc", at least when it comes to names...As for your Gaelige professor's busy schedule, I pity him, too. :)-- Nanaea

NanaeaIn case you'd like to know, Caora is pronounced Keeruh.As for John Gleeson, he's sorta asked for it (he teaches Gaelic and Irish Studies classes, is a prominent member of the Irish community, sets up tours of Ireland, helps teach Irish during Mother's Day weekend and over the summer, etc. The last time he really took some time off was when he had his heart attack and sextuple bypass surgery. Some vacation, huh? :(Phyllis (aka Sidhe Uaine or Gaia Euphoria)
