No way would I have the time but do recognise that the thread has the benefit of keeping some folk quiet, particularly certain folk who shall be nameless. But I thought to research further (as is my wont) and try to find out the number of words in the language beginning with letter 'z'. But found that impossible to quantify because of large number of scientific words (which do, of course, have a great relevance to LOTSW). In the process found that four years back there was a significant April Fool joke that letter 'z' was to be abandoned. But also came across this great definition:

Za (n.) An old solfeggio name for B flat; the seventh harmonic, as heard in the or aeolian string; -- so called by Tartini. It was long considered a false, but is the true note of the chord of the flat seventh.

Not a lot of people know that.
