Harmonica & Armonica
By Will Herzog

Armonica has eight letters so it works as a DOS file name.  These
guys knew that 300 years ago.  Harmonica was taken, _later_ , to
describe and differentiate the metal reed instruments.

Armonica is for rubs, and so harmonica is for blows and sucks.
Rollmonica is for rolls.  Makes sense to my perverted mind!
