    <summary type="html">Tell you what, I'll seed the Petri dish with my "Pet Peeve du jour", hearkening from my geeky bend of skateboarding in the 80's:&#xD;
&#xD;
ollie&#xD;
&#xD;
Main Entry: ol·lie &#xD;
Pronunciation: 'ä-lE&#xD;
Function: noun&#xD;
Etymology: Ollie, nickname of Alan Gelfand b1963 U.S. skateboarder&#xD;
1 : a maneuver in skateboarding in which the skater kicks the tail of the board down while jumping in order to make the board pop into the air&#xD;
2 : a maneuver in snowboarding in which the rider transfers weight from the front to the back foot to snap the board up off the ground &#xD;
- ollie verb&#xD;
&#xD;
&#xD;
Now, when you try to conjugate the verb, you open a whole can of worms relating to spelling choices:&#xD;
&#xD;
Present Tense: Olliing? Ollieing?&#xD;
Past Tense: Ollied? Ollieed?&#xD;
&#xD;
&#xD;
All of this could have been easily avoided if they'd stuck to the Original term "Ollie Pop", making "Ollie" a slang reference to the Proper Noun/Verb, and consequently any conjugations with the slang are, by their nature, exempt from standard rules, norms, and expectations... :)&#xD;
&#xD;
Damn those folks at Mirriam Webster!&#xD;
&#xD;
How's that, and welcome aboard.... :)</summary>
