This is clearly something that people either disagree upon, or are confused about... perhaps it's just an issue of semantics. However, even answers.com says that:

Obviously, they could be wrong... the Internet is replete with plenty of disinformation and misinformation. The point being that either it's easy to be mistaken/confused on this issue, or we are just arguing semantics.
