Q: You know, "forums" should really be spelled "fora."
A: I know.  But since everyone else uses "forums," if we used "fora" here we'd get emails/posts like "what's 'fora' mean?"

I know Pete has had a beef with this for years  :)

According to both Merriam-Webster Online and Dictionary.com, both "fora" and "forums" are perfectly acceptable.

I like "forums", because "fora" makes me think of vegetation.
