On the one hand your Lessons are on etymology, but on the other the change the word forte is undergoing should be denied, shouldn’t you bee [rooting] for this? I see a really big contradiction here.

What, you cook? Nooo wayyy =)) I have yet to discover my fort, but that only leads me to believe that it is something great, something I haven't tried before. Maybe... driving a space shuttle? Or flying? We shall see :D Fine work!

A fort would normally have several persons facing in different directions, so I don't think your example holds. However, I give you credit for a good try. Actually I think the name was applied to the airplane because most people just don't make the distinction unless they are talking about something that traditionally is called a fort, i.e. an army fort. Besides, fortress just has a better ring to it. In the end, it's all PR. So a fort can consist of one person with one weapon?
