</div>A really neat addition to the words activity would be a section on<br>
etymology. Where did that word come from? That would bring in a nice<br>
section of history from around the world! I've written about this<br>

myself :-) <a href="http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.laptop.olpc.sugar/6786" target="_blank">http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.laptop.olpc.sugar/6786</a><br>
