RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] OT pedants Unite! WAS Re: Wood Duck redux questionnaire answers:

My own "favorite" misuse/misspelling is all of the folks who are
"loosing" steps. I would bet a search of the archives would show more
people who "loose" steps than who lose them!

Pedant, part 2:

1) One who pays attention to details and is meticulous in his own
work.

2) One who is bothered by an obvious and continued misspelling of a
word, bothered as in "it hurts the eyes".

(My definitions.):-)

Tony, Thanks! "Hobbiest" has made me scream every time I see it but
it has been an unvoiced silent scream until now. Hobbyist, Hobbyist,
HOBBYIST darn it!! There, somehow I feel better now.

Next: Get the guys that use eminent and imminent interchangably. That
will be a prize!
