Subject: Words of the Year



I think we need to keep emphasizing that the Words of the Year are not

usually new words and possibly remove the word "newly" from "newly

prominent." I remember last year having to respond to lots of ridicule

of ADS as being "way behind the times." It's starting again this year.

Somebody forwarded Allan's press-release posting to Words-L this morning,

where it has already gotten one response:
