Sort of OT, but did you know that the US misspelling of paedophile, "pedophile" means in Greek: "Lover of feet"? ;)

This time, Fade, I have to say you're right. Make a note of this day.

Although, in saying that, trying to render Greek into English lettering is always going to vary on interpretation. Since I've never heard an ancient greek talk, the question that its "pedo" or "peedo" or "paedo" is not going to be answered.
