What does Icct Hedral become an anagram for? I ran it through an anagram machine and nothing much of interest (other than Lard hectic!) came up. Dave

Thought most are anagrams, doesn't mean they all are. To me, icct hedral looks a lot like cathedral which sort of fits. :: Alan M. Parry :: fluid@hyperreal.com :: <finger me for PGP key> :: http://hyperreal.com/~fluid ever notice On is an anagram of no?

There are a few different kinds of RDJ song titles, none of which have any particular significance, other than being emblematic of his interest in word play. 1. Obsession with 'Ph' (Isoprophlex(sp) Phlange Face(sp) Tamphex, Aphex) 2. Chemical names (Isoprophlex, Salbutamol), though usually garbled. 3. Brand names (Aphex, Tamphex, Ventolin, Alberto Balsam) 4. Anagrams (more recent titles) 5. Silly wordplay (Analogue Bubblebath) 6. Total Head Scratchers (Icct Hedral) 'Icct Hedral' takes 'hedral' -- a suffix for 'sided-ness' (i.e. Dihedral, Polyhedral) And couples it with a nonsense sound, an 'It' with 'cc' in the middle. It might have some personal significance to RDJ, but I think it's just supposed to be vaguely evocative of something geometric, though I do like the 'cathedral' connection. Don't get me started -- I read too much James Joyce at an impressionable age. Kent Williams kent@inav.net (319) 338 6053 (home) (319) 626 6700 x 219 (work) (319) 626 3489 (fax)

So who's going to write the lexical parser that converts into "Aphex" first? Greg? :-)
