    why do you insist that everyone is ignorant or lazy? Ours is not the first group of people to adapt a word into a different meaning.

    even in the English language there are words that have different definitions in different locations.

    Take the word boot for example. In my house, boot can mean a couple things: footwear or the process of loading an OS like on a computer. Skip on across the atlantic and they'll tell you its on the back of a car. I could argue until I'm blue in the face that it's not a "boot" they are referring to, but a "trunk". But, both words are acceptable to define that space, its a matter of the group of people you are with.

    We have "redefined" codom for our own needs and it has suited us well. Why are you making it your personal crusade to correct everyone?
