I love this quote.

As entertaining as I find the quote, we accept such compressions fairly regularly. "Hi" for "How are you?" achieves a slightly higher compression rate, although it is not actually used to mena the full version anymore. But then, "kthxbye" really isn't either, and it's had a lot less time to drift.
