Why did NDee say in git.general:
) clearly isn't the case.  It's almost like an anti-participle or 
) anti-gerund;  a noun being used as a verb.

In the English language, just about any noun can be used as a verb, and
vice versa. 

) Can someone use effect as a verb without a 'to' or '-ing'?

I will now effect my response to your question :P
