R+D, Santa Monica Lines: 7 Summary: No, no, it's HEP (Hierusalem est periculata?) that stands for Jerusalem has fallen. (I understand it was used as a rallying cry in Russian pogroms.) Nowadays, I'd consider that ancient meaning to be strictly a homonym for the cheering queueing formula (hip), the archaic slang evaluation (hep OR hip), etc. (Maybe we should move this discussion to net.nlang.) --Lee Gold
