Re: What's an Orchestrion?

The bottom line is that language just isn't precise.

I worked for 35 years with a man who was a polymath and
a genius of sorts.  He wanted a specific word for everything
that exists or could be imagined and a discrete meaning for
every word in the language.

But it doesn't work that way.  What is the difference between
"big" and "large"?
