OK...spelling flame...lowest of low...but it's a pet peeve:
"Moot" point. "MOOT" point. A "mute" point would be a point that doesn't speak and since points don't have mouths, they're all "mute."
edit by Phat: Thanks, Rrhain. You may be picky, but I value your correction. Note that mute is now moot in my post above.
