Which is total BS. Using tv, newspapers to track language use made sense back when those were the only records of daily use, and it still makes sense in many cases today. However, for niche groups it makes little sense to rely on mainstream sources for tracking language use - *especially* since the members of the niche group publish so many words (spoken and written). That's why Wikipedia-nazis who blindly follow policy without thinking are bad for the world. -- Andreas Haugstrup Pedersen <URL: http://www.solitude.dk/ >
