The Janus Definition Project


The following lines are part of a project all users of a JanusNode can contribute to: a collection of randomly-generated definitions. The rules for this project are as follows:
     i.) No words can be added to the definition generated by your JanusNode
     ii.) Words may be deleted from the definition generated by your JanusNode
     iii.) Only articles may be altered.
     iv.) No other editing is allowed.
The 'hit rate' seems to be about 1%- i.e. about one definition in a hundred turns out to be interesting.
