A new paradigm is developing.

Translation from academicese to english = "the shit is hitting the fan."

I guess this is just what it feels like.

Translation = "I'm soiling my skivies thinking about the implications of this."

An astute, if not humorous, translation.

"ovis suburbanus" (which translate to "suburban sheep") has got to be one of the best screen names in the PO sphere I've seen yet.

I thought about posting as "Ignoramus North Americanus" once.

There are a couple other good ones here too. I saw "Sonic The Hedge Fund" on this thread.

Indeed, Matt. Indeed. :)
