It was going so well until she wrote, “. . . isn’t that sticky of an acronym . 
. .”.  I find it very difficult to accept that form of words, common though it 
might be Over There (well, Ken uses it a lot).  And it’s not an acronym.

In fact, on re-skimming the text I don’t think that Katy knows much about 
English; she doesn’t really understand what she’s writing about.

But then, should I be surprised.

But thanks for pointing it out, Mike :-)
