    :-: You've been schooled in the arts of romancin' me.

    If you saw me misspelled

    The letters beheld

    Might make you think me kin of an inclined plain.

    It is not true that I am Evil Kinevel’s kin or domain.

    But I am beast on a charge

    Or a lunatic’s insanity writ large

    Scandalous stories unchecked

    Some may use me in describing the greenhouse effect.

    That made me think of "algorithm," but I don't think that's right.

    I see nothing close.

    Linda, I just wrote this. It is possible I wrote the same one again but I don't remember it. But then I can't even remember my own birth! <-- a bad joke, not a hint.

    I seem to recall seeing "If you saw me misspelled the letters beheld" before, but that's about all that seems familiar....

    We have "ramp." Now think "kin" of a ramp.

    I've looked at this one on and off since it's been posted, but my mind just KEEPS on going blank.

    lemme just say that the "kin" may apply to more than a ramp.

    Would you mind helping a girl out with this one? I'm not sure how that fits all the clues.

    I will try to give you the answers I came up with...

    If you saw me misspelled

    The letters beheld

    Might make you think me kin of an inclined plain. Ramp Aunt?

    It is not true that I am Evil Kinevel’s kin or domain. Not exactly sure on this one.

    But I am beast on a charge In heraldry, an animal in an upright position is a *animal* rampant

    Or a lunatic’s insanity writ large Not sure on this one, either

    Scandalous stories unchecked Widespread, as a rumor is my guess.

    Some may use me in describing the greenhouse effect Greenhouse effect is rampant...or so the story goes
    Grrr...

    Might make you think me kin of an inclined plain. Gabe was right

    It is not true that I am Evil Kinevel’s kin or domain. Evil's domain IS a ramp...and the kin to that ramp...

    But I am beast on a charge Gabe has it

    Or a lunatic’s insanity writ large Running rampant in the streets is a rather obvious sign of insanity...thus writ large.

    Scandalous stories unchecked rumors running rampant

    Some may use me in describing the greenhouse effect. Gabe covered this one.
