COPACETIC rides again

[Jeffrey Kopp]

Long ago (five years) I asserted that "copacete" was from the Jargon,
but after trying to hunt down a reference I concluded I had been
mistaken.  Today I ran across one mention which links the two. (Well,
at least I must have read it someplace.)  Has anybody heard of
"copasenee"?

'Other accounts say it derives from a Chinook word copasenee,
"everything is satisfactory", once used on the waterways of
Washington State . . .'
