Honestly, some people just don't know the correct terminology. Now we
have the pedantry over, can we get back to sailing?

If some people don't know the correct terminology then they should be
taught the correct terminology immediately, if not before and sooner than
that if possible.

Then why didn't you? Why did you find it necessary to be obtuse?

Because of one person who spelled a word incorrectly in the subject line we
have hundreds of subscribers seeing that incorrect spelling over and over
and thinking that's the way it should be. Shame on anybody who allows
something like that to slide. What's more important, sparing the feelings
of a numbskull or demonstrating correct terminology to the maundering
masses?

What's more important is being civil. Usenet is chock full of gold-plated
assholes. No point in adding yourself to the list.

I know, but I was giving him a chance to repent. (or take the hook which.
to his credit, he assiduously avoided)
