Does anyone else make up technical terms at work and see if non-technical people pick them up as buzz words?

Or am I sadistic?

Hehe

I actually caught one of our sales people using a few of them when pitching a proposal to a client.

Now, before I get any flames on this, I admit I'm a Linux/Unix newbie but I've been into computers for 20 years albeit more on a developmental, design and network side.

Ever tried explaining a complex database solution to a CEO who isn't capable of setting up his Outlook Express to check his email by himself?

This type of stuff is the only thing that keeps me sane. ;)
