Epworthunknown
n. The precise value of the usefulness of epping (q.v.). It is a little-known fact that an earlier draft of the final line of the film Gone with the Wind had Clark Gable saying, 'Frankly my dear, I don't give an epworth', the line being eventually changed on the grounds that it might not be understood in Cleveland.
