I forgot to report that I asked my mother whether she had ever heard of

"old mail" for an unpopped kernel, and she said no. She said that she'd

never heard it called anything except an unpopped kernel. (I think I had

mentioned earlier that I had a vague memory that she might have told me

she had called it an "old maid" as a child. My memory was in error.)
