[/quote] um, it is a word. what bothers me is people who instead use "incent" as if that is a real verb.[/quote] Uh... incent is a verb - it's used with an object. From dictionary.com in·cent ? [in-sent] verb (used with object) incentivize. The market doesn't pay people what they are worth and what they need to [b]incent [/b]them to work. Now, one might say that this is good because it will [b]incent [/b]them to find more oil. He wants to [b]incent [/b]homeowners to retrofit their homes to become more energy efficient [/quote]
