Webster's names its Word of the Year

The 2007 Word of the Year at Webster's New World College Dictionary is "grass station" -- a term so sizzlin' hot it already has appeared on the op-ed page of The New York Times.

It's a play on "gas station" and refers to a theoretical fill-up spot featuring ethanol and biomass fuels, some of which are distilled from actual grass. Grass station beat out such entries as freegan, aka Dumpster diver, and iPodization. This doesn't mean grass station will show up in Webster's anytime soon. As one editor said: "It's merely one that made us chuckle, think, reflect, or just shake our heads." Last year's winner: crackberry.
