Gelnaw's Law

Although Gelnaw's Law has been deleted from Wikipedia, it still survives right now in a couple of online dictionary type websites that derived their definitions from the open source encyclopedia. In order to commemorate eminent demise in anonymity, I have found a couple of historical examples of Gelnaw's Law in action.
