Actually, there are a lot of things that I don't use like Twitter, Facebook,
etc., but I still know what the term Tweet means...and I'm sure that even
people who don't have "two nickels to rub together" still know what an ATM
is, or are you saying that if they don't have "two nickels to rub together,"
they're somehow mentally unaware? BTW, a whole lot of people who know what
ATM means, still say ATM machine. So what?
