Words around "Echelon" in English
According to Alphabetics, words before and after a word
in its alphabetical sequence lend prophetic and expository meaning to the word.
The words before and after "Echelon" in my Webster's '71
dictionary are as follows (my comments in [brackets]):
eccentric, deviating from usual practice; anomalous. [Echelon is
supposedly created for civil protection from things like terrorists, but its functions are
reported to go far beyond just that.]
ecclesiastic, ecclesiastical, Pertaining or relating to the church; not civil or
secular. [Echelon is supposedly for civil protection, but reports abound of its
abuse by spying into the business sector, which makes one wonder if maybe ecclesiastics snooping
for heretics might not be one of its uses.]
ecdysis, (Gr., from ekdyo, to strip off -- ek, out of, and dyo,
to enter.) The act of shedding or casting an outer coat or integument, as in the case of
serpents, certain insects. [Echelon removes the exterior barriers of privacy so
as to be able to spy into private activities.]
>>echelon
echidna, (Gr., an adder, a fabulous monster [beast].) A
burrowing mammal of Australia belonging to the Monotremata and resembling the hedgehog, except
that the muzzle is protracted and slender, with a small aperture at the extremity for the
protrusion of a long flexible tongue, by means of which it catches its insect prey; the
porcupine anteater. [Echelon burrows deep through the barriers to privacy and
catches its prey with its long flexible tongue of deceit. Those who dare cross it, have
its protective spines to contend with.]
echidnine, Serpent poison; the secretion from the poison glands of the viper and other
serpents.
echinate, echinated, Set with prickles; prickly, like a hedgehog; having sharp points.
echinoderm, Any marine animal of the phylum Echinodermata, having radial appendages,
symmetrical body structure, and a spiny calcareous exoskeleton, such as the sea urchin. [Echelon
is tied into the maritime admiralty jurisdiction conspiracy whose prickly laws are contrary to
common law of freedom.]
echo, A sound reflected or reverberated from a distant surface; sound returned;
repercussion of sound; repetition with assent; close imitation either in words or sentiments.
