Re: [LM_NET] efforting is a word

[Steven Patnode <Sun85@AOL.COM>]

I would argue that its classification as jargon makes
the case that it is not a word.  
 
Here are more horrors trying to enter (and distort)
the English language.  Beware; these will make your head hurt.
But you have to laugh, too.  In the age of "fun, funner,  funnest"
(nauseating, especially when used by adults who should know
better), anything goes.

Permanence,  perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, 
discouragements, and  impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes 
the strong soul  from the weak. Thomas Carlyle
