Oxford English Dictionary has decided that 'Muggle' will be included into their next edition since "it was being used everyday by so many people all over the world."
this came to a surprise mainly because words invented by authors generally don't make it to dictionaries till after they die =P
incidentally, muggle will have TWO meanings. The other is to describe "a clumsy person or someone who can't pick up a particular skill easily - like computing."
therefore i'm guessing: [color=red]wizardry = computing[/color]
lol
