Online Poll by Fr. Z - Whaddya call this Mass???

It's been driving me nuts, and I'm sure it has done the same to other bloggers and writers. To keep saying, Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite is a mouthful, and a keyboard-full to write.

There have been objections to certain expressions, and the list of variables is long. Here is a glimpse into Fr. Z's original poll - a snapshot in time. Those in red are in a run-off poll in which you can participate to find the most popular expression. This is your chance!!! The more participating, the better the results. Emphasis is mine.
