WOTY Aussie Style

[Barnhart]

This article is interesting (see snippet below and the entire article in
the original posting).  I'm glad to see that Macquarie editors are
monitoring the language of Oz.  Is there a new _Macquarie Dictionary of
New Words_ coming soon?  I hope so.

The other question I have is what will they do for the other 11 months of
2007?

ADS, still rules the roost, I think.  Our timing and perspective are
correct.  Nice job done by all in Chicago.

Regards,
David

announced in the first week of February.
