Re: Domain/Field codes

["scott.edict" <scott.edict@********>]

That's a nice list but probably too exhaustive for edict. I don't think that we have so many surfing terms that we need a tag for them.

Interesting ones:

Music
Naut
Bot
Psychol
Law
Archit
Geol
Astron
Philos
Econ
Curling (ok, not really)
Hist
Theol 
Med
Art
Sport
Politics

*crafts (my suggestion to replace pottery, etc.)
