Hi,

"I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though
she's too young to have logged on yet.  Here's what I worry about. I
worry that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say
'Daddy, where were you when they took freedom of the press away from
the Internet?'"
                      --Mike Godwin, Electronic Frontier Foundation

w00t

   An interjection similar to Yay!, as in: w00t!!!
   I just got a raise! Often used for small victories the speaker dies
   not expect to be of special interest to anyone else.  Some claim this is a
   bastardization of root, the highest level of access to a
   system (particularly UNIX), originated by script kiddies as a 133tspeak
   equivalent of root, and said as an exclamation upon gaining
   root access.  Others claim it originated in the Everquest multiplayer game
   as an abbreviation of wonderful loot.  Still other claim it
   on originated on IRC as the Ewok victory cheer. Adj.
   w00table has the sense of
   cool or nifty.  This is one of the few
   leet-speak coinages to have crossed over into non-ironic use among
   hackers.
