A comment on Talk: John McWhorter: Txtng is killing language. JK!!!

Apr 29 2013: Absolutely fantastic talk by an absolutely fantastic speaker. McWhorter speaks so eloquently and really gets the point across about the new language.

I'd be interested to see studies in the coming years about if text-speak (as it evolves) affects brain activity in the same way that bilingualism does.
