New users hate languages with lots of punctuation in the keywords.  Mr. 
Demidov correctly reminded me of this, and of the history of users 
hating such languages, and this caused me to abandon ..metas for metas.  
Mr Demidov, can you say more about this history?

What about "meths" (short for methods)?  Is that a word in any language?
