Rachel: PMJI, How are you? I haven't read the magazine yet but I'd have to agree with all of your statements. Just thought I'd chime in and let you know. On another note, I was reading the latest CGW and got another stabbing jolt when I read their little blurb on 3DS MAX. Who at the Yost Group or Autodesk is responsible for putting forth in press releases the word "re-architected"? This bastardization is annoying to me as a licensed architect to say the least. Sapphire would love to do a column on this etymological travesty I'm sure. I have no dictionary in my home that recognizes 'architect' as being a verb let alone one that can be appended with 're'. So, its soap box time for me. I don't tell anyone that I spend my day 'architecting' do you? Doesn't that just rub you the wrong way? – Bob Ritger
