            ARCHITECTUALIZED, that's the word. There was post about this a while ago. Ok, maybe it is not the same, but it is still a cool word. :)

                                Ghastly word. I also hate the use of "authored" where people meant "wrote". Where will this creeping use of jobs as verbs end: "The officer policemanned the criminal."? "The fireman firemanned the fire."? "The lollipop lady lollipopped the children."? Designed is a perfectly acceptable word, why the need for "architected"?

                                        Very few English Monarchs have actually been English. Our current lot are a strange admixture of Greek and German.
