Well, I don't have many conversations with you folks, but it is enjoyable. I could liken it to heading down a winding forest road with lots of interesting things to stop and ponder and plenty of little side trails. For the most part the trails run parallel and eventually reconnect with the main route, but not always and can sure take you through some strange country even if you don't get lost.

Mule Deer, I totally get the whole language evolution thing, but this isn't the same a forming a new word like "emoticon" or "guesstimate", this is erroneous improper terminology tolerated.

By the way, my vote for best Should Be A New Word goes to "ignoranus", referring to someone who is simultaneously both stupid and an a$$hole.

Ooh, look...another trail...is a shotgun still a shotgun if it has a rifled barrel?
