Well, an acquaintance of mine after about 2 years in the United states held a firm opinion that the digital prostate exam is computerized. Since he is a better linguist than me, it did not take me too long to disabuse him, going to the word root "digit" and reminding to him that it means "finger". But at first I pretended to agree with him and with as serious a facial expression and voice as I could master I solemnly assured him that yes, they shove the whole computer. True story, BTW.
