frankenstuff

[Kathleen Miller]

There was a discussion a while back about frankenfood and Paul Lewis' coinage.
Jesse said it made it into RHWCD, which mentions frankentomato.

Any others that you're are aware of that have taken hold? I've found
Frankenscience, -seeds, -athletes, and -fish, but none of them seem to be as
wide spread, or they're just plays on "frankenfood."

Any hints where I might find a list?


Thanks Again,

Katy
