In Response To: Rehashing "Luck" (Daniel Murphy)

I was aware of the Academy's stance on 'email' (and other such terms) and I would have laid 10-1 they use the word 'email' in Quebec beforehand. I will be astonished if they use 'courriel' in Quebec and I don't know much about Quebec. I have a few friends from there and will think of a way to ask them or to get them to say it without biasing the question. Right now I'm doing a hard core search of their facebook pages to see if they ever use either. Neither of them came up. In a society that uses:

• J'ai trouvé un moyen de hacker Facebook
• mon blog
• Je te text vendredi matin
• le ''chat ''est fucker ben je te donne des news bon voyage!!!
• Avec tout le cash que je mets là-dessus
• est quand même une boss avec son propre bureau
• Même moi j'écoute la game!

It's really impossible for me to imagine them using courriel as often as you imply. (there are countless other examples, those were just pulled from random Quebec ppl's status updates) 'Email' is shorter, more forced into the society by English, and understood by all.
