Reminds me of an old Safire smackdown over the plural of octopus. 'Octopi' puts a Latin plural ending on a Greek root, which is wrong. The correct Greek-based plural would be 'octopodes', which might be correct but is pedantic as hell. So stick with an English plural ending: 'octopuses'.

Thank you, mb. I will always defer to someone who quotes Safire. My dear sainted grandmother will now stop rolling over in her grave.
