We all know that you say Potato and I Potaato but have we ever heard you say Router and I say Rooter? No, the answer is that you probably haven't. The reason for that is because there is a U in Router and there is no U in Rooter. They are both distinctively different and both very easy to read, at least to someone who is in the slight bit literate.
So why then am I doused on a daily basis with something along the lines of "I think there is something wrong with my LinkS rooter"? Well there's a very easy answer to that question: the person who said it is illiterate or just plain can't speak English. In either case I think they should either hang up immediately and join Hooked On Phonics or be thrown out of the country as an illegal immigrant.
There is always another option of course, they could call The Real Rooter.
