Word of the Day: Germane

Our Word of the Day for today is one I've been tempted to use many times when reading over comments at "Couric & Co."

germane (jer-MEYN) adj. 1. closely or significantly related; relevant; pertinent.
To anyone who'd like to comment on any of our posts: please keep your remarks germane .

Or, if you're Pope Benedict, you can keep them German.
