<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Here's another journalist's report on
that list.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Verdana">CHICAGO - A "surge" of overused
words and phrases formed a "perfect storm" of "post-9/11"
cliches in 2007, according to a U.S. university's annual list of words
and phrases that deserve to be banned.</font>
<p><font size=3 face="Verdana">...</font>
<p><font size=3 face="Verdana">"Webinar" made the list as a tiresome
non-word combining Web and seminar that a contributor said "belongs
in the same school of non-thought that brought us e-anything and i-anything."</font>
<p><font size=3 face="Verdana">Similarly, the list-makers complained about
the absurd comparisons commonly phrased "x is the new y," as
in "(age) 70 is the new 50" or "chocolate is the new sex."
"Fallacy is the new truth," commented one contributor.</font>
