    Now and again, the media latches on to a word and it suddenly appears everywhere. A couple years back it was "systemic," and even worse, people were using "systematic" when they meant "systemic", and I don't think very many could define either one.

    The 2-dollar word du jour is "stochastic."
    Look it up, because the pundits will work it to death until everyone gets sick of the fad.
