    Words and their meanings in a technical community—and both CAUT and PianoTech are technical communities—are important. They convey certain defined technical meanings to the participants. These are not casual discussions over the Sunday barbecue with Aunt Matilda. To misuse technical words or to apply one's own meanings to them—even if that usage was in vogue a hundred years ago—can only mislead and confuse the reader or participant.
