Yes, it makes perfect sense. Except the British don't see it that way:

Well, then, it's just the Brits are wrong. <g>

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".

Not in my system, it can't.

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.
