Default Babelcarp enters a third milliverbium

Sorry for the coined word in the Subject line, but it was minted by a
classical scholar who is also a tea fanatic (not me, if anyone is
wondering.)

Speaking of being sorry, I have to apologize for tooting my own horn,
but Babelcarp now has two thousand entries. It's true that one of the
recent ones is the Chinese word for teabag, but I won't force that one
upon the readers of this post.

Seriously, the point of this is that the lexicon continues to grow.
So if you tried to find a particular Chinese tea term there, say, a
month ago and came up empty, you might find it if you tried today.
