    See here-

    You are obviously not a run-of-the-mill young skull full of mush; stop using the internet jargon exclusively and spell the words out so as to make the proper impression.

    You will find it therapeutic, at a minimum, and in return we will reveal the secrets of the universe to you.

    White House on defensive as US media breaks taboo to declare conflict 'civil war'


    ... on Monday NBC News used one of its best-known presenters, Matt Lauer, to declare the network's semantic defiance of the White House. "After careful consideration, NBC News has decided a change in terminology is warranted, that the situation in Iraq, with armed, militarised factions fighting for their own political agendas, can now be characterised as civil war."

    Do you think it unimportant?
