Arch for the french around here the meaning is a cart, like a push

Did a bit of googling. I suspect what it really boils down to is another
nonsensical academic excercise. It is indeed a cart. Perhaps not the
cart as used by Parisian architectural students. In our times it is more
likely to be the cart one uses when cleaning out a stable.


Have fun and take care

Hey Lobby, over to Leif for the word's origin. He's the wordsmith,
but around here it's probably the same root as 'charade'. "for our
leaders to ignore" was my add on, but I've been to a few club
meetings that fit my definition.
