Previous Discussion on "Squeaky Wheel"

[Fred Shapiro]

I realize that I had asked the same question last year, triggering a
discussion here featuring excellent postings by Sam Clements and Doug
Wilson.  I still would welcome any further contributions, especially since
Ben Zimmer may not have been on ADS-L at the time of the prior thread.
