3. Another new word/phrase that has cropped up is 'Zuccotti Lung'

Related article: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Zuccotti-Lung-Park-Sickness-Demonstrators-Protesters-Illness-133669113.html?dr

p.s. I heard a protester, after he coughed, say that he had 'Zuccotti Lung' - on one of the evening MSNBC news shows.
