Hello,

I always understood the word "orgitron" to mean "electronic/mechanical organ."

Kind regards,

Subject: [NABOKV-L] QUERY: Orgitrons in ADA?

Dear listers,

Gennady Kramer, who's translating my Nabokov's Ada into Russian, wonders what to make of "orgitrons" in "organs and orgitrons," ADA 539, about four pages into Part Four. Can anyone see anything specific?
