    I doubt any language ever did ask permission! The great thing about English is its ability to assimilate and create whatever is required. For power of expression and exactitude our language is unequalled; fortunately we have no equivalent to the Acadamie Francaise trying to hold us to some imaginary level of "purity". That said, the Frenchicon have far more respect for their own language and take far better care to use it properly than many native English speakers.

    Go down to your local recycling depot and you'll probably find people drop linseed oilicon off there regularly. Many seem to buy it with intentions to use it, but never do, or only a little out of the bottle. I must have 10 gallons by now, so much I've decanted it into 5 gallon jugs.

    Imperial gallons if course!
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
