It's like ordering a Coke when all they sell is Pepsi, everybody knows what I am talking about except possibly you, actually, scratch that, you knew, you just want to argue over nothing. Since the term IS came first, its more like a COKE than a pepsi (pentax) . These are just different trade names for the same damn thing, the image/sensor is moved to compensate for camera movements to reduce blur... What does Konica-Minolta call theirs? It's the same technique as Pentax is currently using....If you dont like my terminology fine, but sometimes the generic term is the more appropriate term to use. And in the case of Pentax, they are only using one technique so there can be no confusion when reffering to their version of "IS".

Don't generalize - be specific and precise. By using the wrong terminology you are passing along erroneous information. The results are similar but the implementation and the concepts are different.
