>>I am doing a 5 minute presentation for Toastmasters about the changes

>>being made to English. (The audience is mostly

>>English-as-the-second-language Citibankers) The emphasis is that a

>>language that does not change is dead. For research, I am trying to

>>locate a list of changes made in the last 10-20 years - I wish to keep

>>the speech lively. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
