I just read "candlelight virgil". It was used twice, so it's not a typo.

Maybe they are referring to a superhero - Candlelight Virgil, forever vigilant in the dark shadows of the night.

I haven't yet seen that, but I'm looking forward to it. Maybe it was me.

In a different forum, after somebody used the non-word, "walah", a true genius corrected him/her by posting the following:

It’s not “walah,” it’s “Viola.”
