Abstract

There exists in America an awesome, albeit subtle, linguistic poverty which is the logical by-product of our society's obsession for expressing itself through the advanced medium of the S. S. S. (i.e., Systematically Sacculated Statement). While scientists are secure behind their Geneva Nomenclature, while politicians are comfortably ensconced in Congressional incongruities, while hippies and housewives huddle in the happy hibernation of their respective jargons -- while all this is going on there is, simultaneously, untold suffering by an incalculable number of citizens who are grammatically deprived because of their occupational anonymity.
