Yes, it makes perfect sense. Except the British don't see it that way:
Well, then, it's just the Brits are wrong. <g>

Not in my system, it can't.@bstorer said:
My system:
Route as a verb, rhymes with "out." Route as a noun, rhymes with "boot." Thus, router rhymes with "outer."
Hey, I didn't say it was a good system.
Yeah, but depending on where you live, route as a verb can also rhyme with "boot", which is why router can rhyme with "booter".
Also the verb route as in "routing traffic" and the noun route as in "freeway/highway route" come from the same Latin root, so it makes sense that they could be pronounced the same way.
Like I said, I didn't say it was a good system.

That, and we have roving bands of Souties who roam the land, forcibly removing anyone without fanatical (and usually unbased) devotion to Boston/New England teams.
And I was watching morbius's posts, too. If he hadn't gotten the Celtics praise into this thread that mentioned them, I would have reported him to those Souties - I have friends in Boston.
Lucky for him, though, he did his duty.
I agree. We can let him off... this time. :)
P.S. I just *knew* someone was going to pick up on that typo, but I didn't notice it until it was too late.
