Speaking of AOL speak like 4 and u, abbreviating words with numbers drives me crazy: 4get, 2gether or gr8.

I see on dictionary.com that null can refer to zero, but in the world of database programing, null means
no value, while 0 and spaces - " " -
are values. If you're working with SQL databases, confusion on that point gets you into trouble. That's why it sounds wrong to me when computer people refer to a "null value."
