Do you realize you're proving the RAE bad?
I love that!!!!

Every time they give me an etymology, I crosscheck it in the GREC (if there's a cognate) or Corominas (which means running across the hall). Half the time, they don't even bother.

Did you know that part of my taxes go to these people? Of course there would be worse people to give money to, like the church, but it's quite disturbing.

Dude, don't even talk to me about that! At least 4% of my tax dollar is spent simply on servicing the debt for past military expenditures. If I could, I'd much rather have that go to even a mediocre cultural institution.
