Who calls a TV a "television" anymore? Or a phone a "telephone" or a fax a "facsimile?" Or who calls pants "slacks." If you do, stop. It makes you sound old. And out of it.

Thanks for your thumbs ups, R, Shawn, and Etiquette. Shawn: My 8 year old told me "nobody says internet anymore." At least in third grade circles, "internet" is passe. Hmmm.

Ha! Funny, Skip...and something to think about. In fact, a recent article even suggested using terms like "Net" and "the Web" to describe the Internet is now antiquated, so even newer technologies have their old sounding words just like television...er...TV.
