Last Saturday I was listening to the radio game show "Says You." One segment involved guessing the correct definition of the word oding. It turned out to be "observing dragonflies," derived from the Latin species name odonata. When the answer was revealed, one of the contestants joked that those who watched dragonflies closely were, of course, odors. (The tie design is based on a painting by Louis Comfort Tiffany.)
