Okay ... what about ....
Why is it when people describe a video recording (movie, documentary, whatever) they say Video or DVD. Isn't a DVD a video? Why can't they say VHS (or Beta ) or DVD? It makes me feel that advertisers think the public is stupid ... what, we can't tell the difference between a tape or a DVD ... hello, they are both in videos, just in different formats. One is a tape, the other is a DVD.
And what about the term Latin? Latin music ... latino ... latin food, etc. Don't they mean Latin American? I, being of Italian heritage (all GPs are from the Old Country) have more "Latin" in my blood than most, if not all Hispanics. Latins came from Litium ... which is modern day Rome. I guess it is our Lexicon once again ...
