I came here for a gripe, but this is abuse!


If it makes you feel any better, sometimes I'm the jackass who pulls out suddenly to make a left turn in front of the big truck. Not so much nowadays, but boy when I lived in New England... :)

I came here for a gripe, but this is abuse!

From the New Oxford American Dictionary:
<blockquote>index |&#x02cc;&#x026a;n&#x02c8;d&#x025b;ks| noun ( pl. -dexes |&#x02cc;&#x026a;n&#x02c8;d&#x025b;ks&#x0259;z|or esp. in technical use -dices |&#x02cc;&#x026a;nd&#x0259;&#x02c8;siz|)
    <li>an alphabetical list of names, subjects, etc., with references to the places where they occur, typically found at the end of a book. &bull; an alphabetical list by title, subject, author, or other category of a collection of books or documents, e.g., in a library. &bull; Computing a set of items each of which specifies one of the records of a file and contains information about its address.</li><li>an indicator, sign, or measure of something : exam results may serve as an index of the teacher's effectiveness. &bull; a figure in a system or scale representing the average value of specified prices, shares, or other items as compared with some reference figure : the hundred-shares index closed down 9.3.</li>

</blockquote>

[snip]
<blockquote>ORIGIN: late Middle English : from Latin index, indic- &lsquo;forefinger, informer, sign,&rsquo; from in- &lsquo;toward&rsquo; + a second element related to dicere &lsquo;say&rsquo; or dicare &lsquo;make known&rsquo; ; compare with indicate . The original sense [index finger] (with which one points) came to mean [pointer] (late 16th cent.), and figuratively something that serves to point to a fact or conclusion; hence a list of topics in a book (&ldquo;pointing&rdquo; to their location).</blockquote>[pre]

I'm sorry, NA, but I have to, because it just didn't look right:

Merriam-Webster Online: Index
Wikipedia: Index

"Indecies" appears to be a common misspelling among programmers.

But I'm with ya on moral crusaders part.
