    Okay--Made me look up theorbo. So--I have another letter combo to play with. Doubt I'll be playing with the actual musical instrument.

    MONOUBIQUITINYLATION, which I knew mainly because, when I was an undergrad, I was a TA for a professor whose main research interest was the ubiquitin system.

    Lovely! One of my favourite ridiculous-looking instruments! Well done!

    Finally found the long word I've been hoping to find for a long time, probably one of everyone's favorites...

    I'm always happy to find uncommon music terms, such as CROTALES.

    I Just found the word ARCHAEOMAGNETISM on a 4x4. I wasn't exactly sure what it was, apparently it's to do with dating things using the changes to the earth's magnetic field. I thought it sounded like an inescapable pull to study archaeology.

    Fun word.

    A tribute to your memory that you both held onto the word and were able to pluck it from the jumble.

    So many words to find. So many misses. Easy to clog your brain with word-overload.

    Congrats on the find.

    We have two ponds out back and thrill at their orchestration every spring. The American toads are our favorite instruments. Bullfrogs the least.

    The edges of the ponds are already teeming with thousands of tadpoles. Soon they'll saturate the landscape. Toadlets everywhere you try to step--not really, but it can seem like that. So, I share your ??? over the word.

    But that happens so muchwith words here, it's...

    Just played a game with debone. Didn't type it because it just seems commonly used. Ooops. Another ultrarare 6 letter word worth 10 points gone to waste by assumption.
