There was a considerable string on this question in April of 1988 (April
14-22), and unfortunately that falls within one of a couple sizable lacunae
in our on-line archives. I can probably supply the thread as a long
text-file to you, Kevin. One of the intriguing elements in that thread was
Ward Powers' endeavor to demonstrate that OINOS was used of unfermented
grape juice, a proposition of which some may have been persuaded.
