<P>I'm on the western side of the Atlantic.</P> <P>Having looked more closely at this page, I see that the hump part of the name comes from a piece called a Hump. Unlike the f-word, hump does have nonobscene uses, but the only one I use is one I rarely use, because I rarely talk or think about camels or hunchbacks. Except for this rare context, the word is nothing to me but a synonym for fornicate. Although I can see how you might use it as a synonym for bump, I just say bump. I have never heard of Wednesday being called hump day.</P>
