`Netspeak' doing more good than harm to English language, experts say


How long has this reporter been holding on to this story, that this is considered something "new and breaking"?  For crying out loud, there's been a "Netspeak" dictionary out there for how friggen long?  Thank goodness someone was there to break this story though.  How long would this have continued unreported? :o
