Of course I did:

bat 1 (bt)
n.
1. A stout wooden stick; a cudgel.
2. A blow, such as one delivered with a stick.
3. Baseball A rounded, often wooden club, wider and heavier at the hitting end and tapering at the handle, used to strike the ball.
4. Sports
a. A club used in cricket, having a broad, flat-surfaced hitting end and a distinct, narrow handle.
b. The racket used in various games, such as table tennis or racquets.

:p

I'm just pointing out that it has been around for a while (in that meaning of the word), at least 15 years I know of.

Don't blame the vaalis. It's probably a result of years of exposure to heavy metals in their water from the mines :o

The same reason we use words like "bat" now, is the same reasons we dont speak in Ye Olde English. English, like all other languages is subject to the mechanics of natural selection.

Its also the reason why english is such a long last, versatile language.
