I... don't even...

Excuse me, I'm going to go off in a corner and cry re-evaluate my world-view for a few minutes.

Hold me?

A world without the OED in print, on paper. I don't know if I can handle this. I think I may need to work on my calligraphy or something, do an illuminated page to cope with my shock and horror, and thumb my nose at the modern world for a while.

Am rushing around trying to get ready keep my cat from eating my cereal milk, but I have to pause to say 'eek, new logo!' There was also a moment of "god damn you, BBC, it's a logo not a state secret!" But then I found a link that would let a dirty American see it and was... well... I'll let you decide, shall I?

( Spoiler for logo commentary? )
