VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: I asked about the origin of the word on Compuserve and Diana said it was a word used by her mother's side of the family (who are of English descent). Interestingly enough, if you Google "chisping", one of the links that comes up is the link to that very same Compuserve thread where the question was asked .
In reply to: Lady Jay 's message, "In the first line of that chapter, DG describes chisping as "that ambiguous sort of precipitation, half snow, not quite drizzle." Don't know what the origin is." on 08:15:06 10/21/07 Sun
