Super!

A suggestion has wound its way through to the ether to this blog, namely that we …

should cover whether 'super' is the new 'cool' and quantifier ('super nice') and the new squeaky clean 'great!' (smile obligatorily when you use the term). You should get to it before Colbert uses it against Bush.

In all the time of sending and receiving email, I don't think I've ever had back to back notes with the same message. Today I checked my email and had notes from two people. They both had the same message: Super. Thanks. (with slightly different punctuation, though). It was a super cool moment.

I've noticed this too, with some surprise: It sounds like something we said in the 1970s.
