| http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#value | - ???Cockamamie/cockamamy,??? a US slang word for crazy/silly, probably comes from decalcomania, a term for a fad (mania) in the 1860s to do what the French called ???d??calquer.??? Decalcing was transferring a design from specially prepared and dampened paper to a hard surface, such as glass or porcelain (compare the modern vogue for transfer tattoos).
