[news.misc] Proper spelling

jeffd@ficc.uu.net (jeff daiell) (07/22/89)

The Society for the Preservation of Univeral Lingual Purity would
like to point out to Mr. Kibo and others:

The proper spelling is *not* Kibology.

It is Kiboology.

Back to your desk, young man, and key in:

"I will use proper spelling."

one hundred times.

And do *not* employ buffers in doing so!

Like Geoology, Scientoology, Bioology, and Astroology, I suppooze?

Kibology does not have an 'oo'.  Nor does 'kibozo' or 'kibotic' or
'kibologist' or 'kibologer' or 'kibe' (especially 'kibe') or 'Xibology'
or 'Xiboze'.

But hey.  You're allowed to spell it your way.  And I'm allowed to spell
it my way.
