Computer science is not about machines, in the same way that astronomy is not about telescopes. There is an essential unity of mathematics and computer science -- Mike Fellows (often attributed to Dijkstra, but first published by Fellows in 1991 in "Computer SCIENCE and Mathematics in the Elementary Schools")
Ah but language is fluid and I think it's going to be hard to turn this train around. Think "Personalized URLs". I've *never* heard anyone say "Personalized YOU ARE ELLS".
Since language is fluid, I propose to act as a reef around which the language must flow. Which might create a water hazard, and result in shipwrecks. But I doubt it will cause any train wrecks. ;)
