Gaffa

[jw@BOURBAKI.MIT.EDU]

A friend of mine who is a native Japanese speaker has never heard of
the word "gaffa". She adds that it is a highly unlikely sounding word
as both "g" and "f" are very rare consonants in Japanese.

By the way, I like Steve Schonberger's idea that Kate is deliberately
using "Gaffa" to sound like a place.  That's what I thought it was the
first time I heard the song.  A variant of "Jaffa" perhaps?

I was interested in the posting about the "Golden Dawn." Any more
information forthcoming? (And Doug, could you conceivably send me
another copy of that posting, I accidentally deleted mine.)
