Thanks, but unfortunately that didn't help much..I was looking for something in relation to photography.
And I have now given up on ever finding out what it is.

Sorry. Nothing comes up on a simple search. And I don't recall that from my days of photography classes.

I'm filling out my application form for a working holiday visa for the US. Theres a section asking about what countries I've visited in the last five years. Should I leave out the fact I went to Cuba 2 years ago, or am I just being paranoid?
Apparently you can be rejected for filling in your city of birth wrong so who knows what could be a problem?

It's not a good idea to lie on your visa application, IMO.

They don't stamp your passport when you go there?

I have a new passport so theres no stamp. It would be very easy to find out though.
However I filled it in because I can't see why it would be a problem (if anything going there reaffirmed my belief that extreme socialism/communism doesn't work) , and I don't want to violate my integrity by lieing by omission.
Just called the travel agents and apparently they've only had problems when people omitted to mention they were in Cuba or certain middle eastern countries.

I say just be truthful.

Right uh I have two (2) questions!
1) Inspired by a happening in the diaries thread: what's the deal with 'invaluable'? Why does it mean 'very valuable' as opposed to similar words like 'invulnerable' where 'in' reverses the meaning? There are probably some linguistical boffins or peeps who took Latin who would know the answer to this.
2) Does the nicotine in cigarettes have any purpose other than making them addictive?
Thanks!

"Inflammable" is the same way, but even funnier, as it involves fire.
1) Beware, I'm German. But as far as I can tell the 'in' in invaluable also negates the meaning. So it says, that you aren't able to name any value for sth. So it matter-of-factly is priceless. 
2) In the plant it is probably only meant to protect it from being eaten. In the product (cigs) it is interfering with your brain chemistry when consumed. Only my 2

Pardon my ignorance, but why is going to Cuba an offence, and likely to restrict access to the US?

No reason really. Its just that the people at the travel agency seemed to think that it was very easy for your application to be rejected for minor reasons/omissions/mistakes, and since Americans aren't allowed travel to Cuba I thought it could lead to problems.
I think its just the travel agency people made me a bit paranoid. They basically assume that because you're a student you're going to screw up in some way.

Americans can't go to Cuba? Are they scared of too many cigars getting imported or something?
How can I make my posts as win as this post?

Start each post with the word "irregardless".
Inhabitable, inflammable, and invaluable are just quirks of English.
