I wonder why forward slash hasn't been reduced to foreslash. It's less of a mouthful.

Because its proper name is 'slash', which is even less of a mouthful.

"foreslash" = getting in the mood by reading about Capt. Picard getting a handjob?

"foreslash" sounds too much like what the moyl does at the bris.

(I guess milo got there first)

Backslash = Backtrash - don't pick it up! And don't pick up Genesis P-Orridge either.

Backslash may be on the wane, but BACKFAT is waxing quite nicely.

One of those "does not equal" symbols. The = with the slash through it.

i tried it, but it would't come through into the html (and couldn't find a special character for it)

Hence my random question marks upthread. That's all that came through when I entered the "does not equal" symbol thingy.
