Why "Scivium"?

Scivium is a made-up word with Latin roots. I hope its formation is correct enough for those who know about this stuff, since I sure don't.

I pronounce it SIH-vee-um, even though all of the other words that start with sci- (from Latin, knowledge) that I can think of are pronounced like science. -vium (and -via) are also from Latin, as I said in the first line above, which mean "path" or "way".

My idea is that scivium then means "the path of knowledge," which pretty well sums up my thoughts on product development. Go where the facts lead, don't let emotion get in the way, and do what is, well, correct. This isn't to say that decisions should be made without emotion. Indeed, any time there are people involved, emotion is right there too and as well it should be. Just be sure that it's understood as such and that it isn't interfering with the rational process.
