p+w = po ???
As other's have said, a few words will make, most won't.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

Some words from the Internet culture will defiitely make it into English. Like the Internet-meaning of "own". However, I dislike the way this leet-speak is used on most boards. Actually, the problem is not so much the leetspeak itself but rather the fact that many people don't even bother to write properly. I mean, completely - tons of spelling mistakes, awful grammar and no capitalization. And yes, these are native English speakers.Solver, WePlayCiv Co-Administrator
