So what is something that is palpable? Who really cares? I leave that quest to lesser mortals. I instead scoured the murky and dangerous w w w in search of those things that are in the past, historic and ancient. I seek for what WAS palpable. Why? Coz thats how I roll. yeeayh

So i did actually google the exact text string "was palpable" to see what kind of usage there existed on the net. After many pages of scrolling i got bored and here are my results.

These objects can be classified into a couple of broad categories

MEDICAL:
Seems like those fiendish dactar sahibs and madams have appropriated this word for their fiendish purposes. See what they've been feeling up:
enlarged cervical lymph node
testis
bladder
solitary lesion
femoral pulse

short saphenous vein
spleen
cardiac impulse
liver
tumor
fetal head

I didn't find that last item in google and maybe my enemies will use that oversight against me. But just in case let me declare that probably sometime, somewhere a Turd was palpable. Hah! Now google will find it and its official.
