the english language is limiting sometimes.

parge came up with the idea that english needs a word that encompasses "when" and "where" simultaneously.

therefore - mark this on a piece of stationery, write it into your dictionary, tattoo it on your arm...

"whern". = where/when?

mark o'leary helped with this. we decided on "wharn" but we decided that an r-controlled vowel would be problematic for challenged, developing, or just plain stupid speakers of the language - of which there are many. "worn" and "warn" sound to close to what people may have pronounced "wharn" so we had to alter it a bit. mark provided a practical alternate selection.

WHERN?

oh shit, forget "discovery" and "innovation". someone beat us to it.

Wow?
'Why?' and 'How?', all wrapped up in a single handy word.

Whern?
Inspired by 'Wow', Rico toiled for months in his laboratory to produce the word 'Whern' - a simple means of avoiding the labour and stress inherent in asking both When and Where one should meet up.


i mean, we're still geniuses... just not the timely sort.
