In The Slippery Slope Klaus makes the recommendation to add the word 'xenial' in place of the word 'xylophone' in the Snow Scout Pledge, but when I tried looking it up, the sources I used(the dictionary, Google, ect.) said it didn't exist... does it exist?

I try to avoid Wikipedia for information, but after re-googling I realized I'd spelt "xenial" as "xenail" which made quite a difference.

Yes, I can see how that might be a problem... funnily enough, though, I don't think you're the first person to ask this question.

Maybe because it's not in most dictionaries- offline dictionaries, of course- I consulted Webster's first, but my edition is painfully outdated, which I thought was the problem.
