yes, the problem is that one word changes its freakin' meaning when used as different parts of speech

To effect something is to bring it into being, into existence.
To affect something is to alter its normal course of action.

BUT...

"What was the effect on that?" is also a good sentence but not about genesis... instead the word there asks how something was affected....

clear as mud?
