Hey alsih2o

[Wicht]

Got a question for you alsih20? What in the world does your sig mean? I catch the Britney Spears reference but is there something else being referenced that I just fail to catch? Or is it just some random thought you typed? I had to ask as its been really plaguing me all week.

alumina, silica and water....the simplified chemical formula for clay...you see, i am a potter and a huge geek

fortunately my wife is a geologist, and all her geo friends get it at least...

 

[alsih2o]

actually i ain't too big a geek, i only weigh in at about 170..ba-doom bing!

 

[alsih2o]

as long as we are on it, what is a wicht? i at first thought you misspelled wight, but you seem to bright for that

 

[Wicht]

Wicht is the old english spelling (also germanic) of the word Wight. Means roughly the same thing but has a connotation of the fey more than the undead.

Actually though I was asking about your sig, not your handle - meaning the pop-singing pheonix.

 

[Wicht]

Though it was interesting to find out what your handle meant too

It is ironic that I heard she is not very fond of you either.
