   That reminds me of an old play of mine on “do not worry”:   
      
   donut whirry   
      
   though in that I was thinking whirry was a noun when actually   
   it is a verb meaning to go quickly. I was thinking that   
   whirry meant a foam.   
      
   Oh, in my original usage I wrote   
      
   “donut whirry/wherry”   
      
   and wherry is a word for a rowboat or barge, so combining   
   the two you would have a fast rowboat.   
      
   Followup-To again set to sci.physics .
