A new misle?
I've tried to hunt down the AUE web page for misles to see if this is already recorded, with no luck. Does it still exist? Did it ever exist, or was it all a dream?
Anyway, I recall that someone - I believe Donna - collects them, and I came across one today that I don't remember seeing before ... although the chances that I'm the first to note it are close to zero.
It's "coax", which I read today several times as "co-ax", short for "co-axial", until I got the real meaning and the sentence made sense.

I see that word so rarely that I'd never bothered to look up its meaning. Like you, I thought it rhymed with 'myopic'. Now you've prompted me to look it up, but it's probably too late to
