("Ebonics" elided) There's got to be a better way than Ebonizing manually. First there was the Canadianizer, eh, hoser? Then there was Zippy (www.metahtml.com/demos/zippy/), which is terrific for Willy/Freeh/Reno speeches. We really need an Ebonizer (TM)! BTW, Tim's not kidding about the Oakland, CA school system.
