Well, kids, it was fun while it lasted. Thanks to all the readers who pointed out our mistake to us. Sorry about that -- we're new in town!
Personally we find it quite dubious. When was the last time you heard the vowel "o" pronounced like a long "a"?
But then again, we can't really blame the man. We got beat up a lot on the playground too!
