It really is a pain in the butt since both effect and affect have noun and verb forms. What a language.

I had a couple of teachers who were ridiculous sticklers about this in highschool. My hack is remembering the two phrases Affect A change vs cause and effect.

I think we should change the word to -ffect and it will automatically be the correct form in all usages.
