[words]

I derive much glee from the fact that the word mishmashes 'inasmuch' and 'insofar' are valid dictionary words.

I want more crazy words like those! Three words in one!

Of course, I tend to want to use 'inasmuchas', because 'as' is the most common word I use at the end of 'inasmuch'. Sadly, _that_ is not valid.

OK. See here (http://www.stc-orlando.org/newsletter/2003/memo_2003_10.pdf), page 3.
By the way, some people in DC contract "can I have" into "caiav". Does that count?

That's beautiful. Not quite what I was originally talking about, but beautiful nonetheless!

Amusingly, I only noticed that after I did it. So, unintentional. But neat!
