OP Did I use that right? It's like "fiat lux", right? I was cataloging a book with the title "der werfe den ersten Stein" and was fixing the record in the database so that "der" was not an article to be skipped over but a demonstrative pronoun ("that person should cast the first stone") when I noticed the unusual form of the verb, and then I remembered a whole group of mixed nuts that worry about stuff like that, and then I remembered how long it had been since I talked to them, and how maybe that's why I've been getting too much done at work...
