Subject: Gotta love the English language -- US-style

Heard on ABC NewsRadio just before 8pm tonight: The new US edition of the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, being released this week, includes the word "tardis" -- but the definition of the term is more along the lines of "something bigger on the inside than the outside"...

Hmmm... I suppose this means "dimensionally transcendental" has to wait for the next edition while they try to figure out a new definition for that... hehehehe
