Well, they do both mean "go with": con- (with) + gressus (p.p. of gradi, to walk), co- (another form of con-) + itus (p.p. of iri, to go).
The characters on The Big Bang Theory keep mispronouncing "coitus"; the o and the i are supposed to be separate, like in "coincidence", "cooperate" and "coalition".

Images of Thom
At Mondragon - both the mountain and the cooperative city - in Spain (written about in "Threshold" book)
Mueller's favorite place to pray (written about in "Prophet's Way"), and the roof of the room where the Last Supper is reputed to have happened.
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
Is it just a coincidence that one meaning of 'congress' is coitus and that's also where
the American people can count on getting screwed? (Also available at bookstores
near you.)
