Zev, Good use of "ditto" (though I prefer "mega-dittos"); bad use of ibid.
i'm not sure intifada is being used in an etymologically consistent way here. Still, it makes an intersting point.
err, part of the point of etymologies is that usages cahnge, no? otherwise etymologies wouldn't be nearly as interesting...
