There's a brain teaser that goes:

   "There are 3 words in the English language that end with `gry'.
   `Angry' and `hungry' are the first 2 -- what is the third?"

Evidently, webster doesn't know either:

   % webster
   Word: *gry
   The webster server appears to be broken.
   Please try again, and if it doesn't work,
     send mail to bug-sipb to let the SIPB know.
   
   % 

I tried webster again; it's still there and working.  Just
thought someone should know.
