I received that same email, Kit. Pretty funny, I liked it.

In addition to the list from cman, there's another messaging language called Leet. It's for the more advanced, deep-dish users of computer languages, not used too much by the average texting teen. Computer programmers used it amongst themselves where I worked.

Wikipedia has a good description of it:

As the article shows, typing Wikipedia in the Leet language would look like this:
