Etymology is the study of word origins... 'Etymology' has a Greek basis, meaning true reason. One of the web sites I visit has a word of the day thingy, and today's word was:
Afflatus - a divine imparting of knowledge; inspiration.
This is suspiciously similar to another stuffy word...
Flatus - a fart, or toot. Also known as a butt quack.
I don't claim to know what this means, I'm just an amateur. But if I had to guess, I would say that tooting is a form of expression, maybe even divine. Don't hold back during those inter-departmental meetings. Share the wisdom, as it were.
