    PHIG = "People's Hone of Indeterminate Grit" A name bestowed on the infamous Chinese 12k by Holli4/Dylan after Utopian started a thread about the fact that we have no clue what grit it is

    huh, wish I would have seen that wiki when I first started perusing this site. I thought some of your were speaking a foreign language at first.

    Do you guys think this should go on the 'Help' menu? I was debating it when I put the rest and decided to leave it out for the time being.

    It wouldn't hoit
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    I think it'd be a good idea...another place for guys/gals to run across it as the Wiki can seem a bit overwhelming and this may be missed (as others have mentioned).

    Yes the Wiki can be a bit of a maze, so it would be a good idea to have it in the help section.

    Thanks Glen, I was really feeling stupid over that one. I did a search once (pre-google upgrade) to try and figure it out but all I could find were posts that used the term PHIG and no definition of what PHIG was.

    I was sure it wasn't connected to the fruit!
