 l33t is to hackers as coughing is to a the conductor of a symphony. l33t
was invented by a couple of teenagers making repeated typos, and then
fiddling it a bit so they could call it purpose instead of accident. It
never made it very far out of chat rooms and online games, and seems to be
dying.
 Hacking is an art.
