Indeed, a friend's dictionary also pointed that out yesterday evening. We
had someone from Oracle, from Informix, and from Verity sitting at the

Even better, if you go to http://www.eb.com:180/hapax/index.htm (after
you've gone to the trouble of signing up for trial membership to
Encyclopedia Brittanica), you can play Hapax Legomena the GAME. I've been
getting chills about running into this phrase twice in one day. I love it.
Do you think E.B. has given up on innovative forms of information retrieval
technology and are trying to train up the new generation of searchers?
Doing my part to spread this meme far and wide,
