David:



My nominations are "cool" (also spelled kul) and "hey." I haven't decided

yet which is my leading candidate, and which is Ms./Mr. congeniality, and

probably won't till I write up my own annual WOTY piece next week. I can

say that one shining light early in the year has clearly dropped out of the

running, "Windows95." See you in Chicago.
