Shrinking Vocabulary? Like, No.

(Update: minor typo fix)

Did you see, recently, a story about the declining vocabulary of today's high school students? I remember noting such a headline in the past few days, but didn't have the heart to read the story.

Fortunately, Cecil Adams is on the case. A nice piece of debunking.

Um, like, no way.

This just reaffirms my comments that because of text messaging, the next generation will be unable to speak and form actual words.
