ice crystals are the only things growing in this part of the year. we had a very heavy fog overnight, leaving behind these fresh crystalline structures growing downwind from most things. fences. leaves. everything sprouted alien white crystalline fungus tendrils.

I’m reading up on Likert scales, and came across this section on the Wikipedia page:
Rensis Likert, the developer of the scale, pronounced his name ‘lick-urt’ with a short “i” sound. It has been claimed that Likert’s name “is among the most mispronounced in [the] field.” Although many people use the long “i” variant (‘lie-kurt’), those who attempt to stay true to Dr. Likert’s pronunciation use the short “i” pronunciation (‘lick-urt’).
also, I did a whole bunch of reading before thinking to look at the Wikipedia page – I was hoping to find links to other original sources. relax.
