    The "free as in beer" thing really annoys me. I've NEVER seen free beer, anywhere! I propose we all stop using this ridiculous phrase and start using "free as in air" instead.

    Now, if there IS free beer being offered somewhere, just point me in the right direction.

    "architected" is not a word, since "architect" is not a verb

    A. You're wrong. English is a living language. Any word that people understand as a verb is a verb. You understood what was written, therefore you are lying.

    B. Your conclusion ("architected" is not a word) does not automatically follow from your premise (since "architect" is not a verb). Your logic is not logical.

    C. Any grammer nazi who does not capitalize the first word in a sentence is a hypocrite.

    D. Any grammar nazi who does not end sentences with a period is a hypocrite.

    E. Any grammar nazi who complains that the "nazi" in "grammar nazi" should be capitalized does not understand how words can be used in a generic sense and thus no longer be proper names.

    F. Grammar nazis suck.
