What the heck is the acronym kewl?


Short version:

William Gibson - The Father of Cyperpunk, started using misspellings
of similar sounding letter/word combinations. Such as kewl for cool,


Not to mention all of those cute young girls that actually pronounce
it that way!.... kinda Coooo--wall....


My two were into the Valley Girl thing.

Those were the dayz.... :)

All the best,

Tom
