   Hi, Denis!  Recently you wrote in a message to Ardith Hinton:   
      
    AH>  To "rice" means to force some sort of food through   
    AH>  a coarse strainer (AKA a sieve).   
      
    DM>  I do not know ... (AKA a ...).   
      
      
               "AKA" is an abbreviation for "also known as".  It's used in   
   various situations where the same person, place, or thing is often identified   
   by two or more different names.  In this case "strainer" and "sieve" are   
   synonymous.  :-)
