We're already saddled with one misnomer

Osteopathy literally means the pathology of the bones. An osteopathic is someone who specializes in this. I see now that the term has been co-opted, and since no less than 100 years, to signify an alternative, holistic therapeutic approach. So be it. For anyone familiar with the original term, it's a stretch but.. a 100 years is a 100 years!

Now then.

What about the waves emanating from the dealer's hole card, doctor? Speak now or forever hold your peace.
