Grex Writing Item 99: portmanteau
Entered by tom67 on Wed Oct 26 17:23:10 UTC 1994:

I was first introduced to the portmanteau by a student at the Summer
School for Designing Society.  The rules for creating a portmanteau are
simple:  1) there are no spaces between letters (except those contained
within the topology of the letters themselves ;) ) 2) neither capital
letters nor punctuation may be used, 3) numbers are acceptable, and 4)
pronunciation is left to the discretion of the reader.
