Worse: it's totally wrong.  It's also defined for eyes, as a musical
genre, as a kind of soda, as an avant-garde artistic movement of the
'50s, for baloons, as a parent of the male persuasion, for email
reading, and moreover it's often used to refer to Persistent Organic
Pollutants or Points Of Presence -- not forgetting weasels, either.
