While I agree that a martini is made with gin, this is an argument you're
never going to win. As soon as an incorrect usage gains popularity, it
becomes correct. It won't be long before dictionaries start containing the
entry that a martini is anything served in a martini glass. Dictionaries
don't DEFINE words, they list how words are USED. And today's culture of
"could-care-less" English speakers are thereby validated.
