I think this is a user/developer difference. Users talk in more direct terms, about how bugs impact them. So very few mention a "bug". But 18 mentions on Twitter of some form of crash/crashed/crashing. On the ooo-dev list we call these "bugs" or "issues". Users "lose all their work". We "debug an exception". The army "pacifies the village", etc. It is good to remember the difference in impact our work (good or bad) has on others, even though we use more clinical terms on this list. -Rob > Don
