Was searching for a recent article I thought I'd read on FR regarding cyber lexicon additions to your average English dictionary. No luck. Instead I "Googled" and came up with this alternate piece I found interesting.

GAK! I'm not a gamer ... don't possess the patience required and am admittedly challenged by clever vanity license plates.

I may never know what 8008135 means. Let me know if you're feeling generous to those of us who are "impaired." :)

Heh, "boobles"? It's never something quite that innocent when it comes to geeks and their leetspeak...
