How many others besides myself are constantly fighting with people insisting that this isn't a word? They just don't understand... Electronic is a word, Electrical is a word, but Electronical isn't! It's a Bushism... but everybody I run into insists that I am just a lunatic. *End Pointless Rant*

I think that is the first time I heard of Electronical........ now I'll hear it at least once a week now because of you ;)

But it doesn't even sound like a word to me.

The first time I heard it was on an airplane during the pre-flight briefing. The stewardess told us to turn off all electronical devices... ever since then I have heard it more and more.

I usually fight with people who insist that it *is* a word.

Every year Webster adds new words to the dictionary. English is a constantly evolving language. Get used to it.

Since when did a little black kid decide what words exist?
