Date: 2008-08-06 12:01 am (UTC)"DERATE" was "Lower the allowed electrical capacity of," which google claims is an accurate definition, but having never heard the word before, it looks completely made up to me. Fortunately only the final "E" had a nasty cross ("Adlai's 1956 running mate", "ESTES"), so it was gettable.
It seems I've accidentally allowed my Games Mag subscription to lapse. I need to fix that soon.
