we will ALWAYS keep a direct link to all our published poets on the home page, but when other things get sort of long in the tooth, they come here to be read. or not. and this link will never be stale:

MIKE OR MIC? a linguist weighs in...
Hi there - I read with great interest the results of your mic/mike debate. I'm an acoustic musician in Boston who maintains a fairly comprehensive list of open mikes in the Boston area, and the "mic" spelling has always made my blood boil. Just today, I received an email suggesting I'd actually MISSPELLED "mic", and I decided to put the issue to rest once and for all. If you're interested, check out http://www.sambayer.com/whymike.html; you'll notice that you folks form a crucial part of the argument.
Cheers, Sam Bayer

Open mike ...or open mic?
