Probably impossible to understand and composed entirely of acronyms........

Actually what do you mean 2630...................bad enough right
now..........DVD,CD,WiFi,WAN,LAN,

Are all in common use as shorthand for the real name, so I guess if you were
to drop out for a few years you basically wouldn't have a clue.............

Even Middle English is bad enough:

For hym was levere have at his beddes heed
Twenty bookes, clad in blak or reed,
Of Aristotle and his philosophie
Than robes riche, or fithele, or gay sautrie.
But al be that he was a philosophre,
Yet hadde he but litel gold in cofre.
(Chaucer, Canterbury Tales, c. 1380 - and that's one of the easier 
quotes from the Prologue)
