I like that, whichbe, but I think it's a backronym. Check the OED.
This word did not come about because it was the plural of 'new.' It came from the first letters of the words North, East, West and South. This was because information was being gathered from all different directions.
Out with the olds! In with the new!
And how do you feel about olds?
No! I only want one new! You can take the rest and sit on them!
