First, Wikipedia is not a dictionary; etymologies belong in Wiktionary. Second, this particular etymology strikes me as dubious to say the least; in any case, it's completely unreferenced. Powers T 16:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy delete per G1. Unsourced, and at best dubious. --Blanchardb 16:42, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
