Dude! How can you even think that?
I think the changes in the language are like totally the schiznitz!

Of course, I do have "Old Fart" embroidered in red above the left  
pocket of my work shirt.

But really, no matter what we would like, language is a living thing,  
and it changes, all the time.
We probably could not understand most of what an american from 1776  
said.
I know I can barely understand it when Thomas Pynchon writes it in  
his book "Mason Dixon", anyway.
