Sir, – Next quarter the following new words could be added to Oxford Dictionaries Online (Front Page, August 28th): cavemen (people who don't watch television) and staxes (stealth taxes such as PRSI, levies, USCs, water charges, dog licences, bank bailouts, special advisers' remuneration and broadcasting charges). – Yours, etc,
