Kernel Dwellers

In layman terms, kernel dwellers are the womens which are attributed a score of 0 out of 10 in regard to their appearance.

The kernel dweller terms arise from the hotness scale operator H, H:Girl --> {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}.
Whenever the operator H acts on a element of the Girl set, say y and Hy=0, then it is said that y belongs to the kernel of H.

Therefore Kernel Dwellers are the ones living in the Kernel of H.
G1 is a kernel dweller, she belongs in the kernel of H, along with the other Kernel Dwellers.

Kernow

Kernow or Cornwall is a beautiful Celtic nation in the far south west of Britain as defined by the Celtic League, Celtic Congress and various other pan-Celtic groups. Along with the other recognised Celtic nations, Eire, Alba, Cymru, Mannin and Breizh it boasts a Celtic language of its own – the key criterion of Celticity and distinct culture. Together with the other Celtic nations, the Cornish are fighting for more recognition of their identity, ethnicity and more say in their own governance. Kernow is also recognised as a Duchy and is entitled to it's own Stannary Parliament as granted under the Charter of Pardon of 1508 which is still law even today and gives the Stannary the right to veto any Westminster legislation.
