One of my ongoing complaints: 'moonshine'. what about replacing it with 'moonlight' in future editions? In Webster's unabridged, the first meaning of 'moonshine' is "*Informal*, smuggled or illicitly distilled liquor..."; only the third meaning is 'light of the moon; moonlight'. In OED, 1st def., moonshine means moonlight but 'now rare or poetic', and meaning 2a is 'an appearance without substance; something unsubstantial or unreal;...' 4th OED meaning, same as first in Websters. ys KKD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
