Excerpts from muddev: 23-Sep-99 Re: [MUD-Dev] an essay on PK by Caliban
T. Darklock@dark 
&gt; Kynn Bartlett once used the term "musterisk" as a pronouncable version of
&gt; "MU*". I tend to like the term, not just because it covers most servers and
&gt; has legacy roots, but also because it gets away from the pattern-matching
&gt; reference and turns it into a nice happy little word that can stand on its
&gt; own. Maybe we should steal it.

I like this... I've been mentally pronouncing MU* as muh-star, which is
nearly 'mustard'.  Musterisk sounds so much better :)
