the Five Forks list for possibilities that haven't already been answers...and decided to go with STEAL. I'm surprised that it hasn't yet been an answer. So, maybe I'll get another 1 before long?

I'll see how it goes for awhile. I've had very good luck with 'TRIAL', but I'll also have to find some new second words because I'll have one new vowel and one new consonant.

Awhile ago I was thinking TRAIN, but it's been used.
TRUCE is another possibility.
