    Yes, it's me, the gen-yoo-ine article! Accept no substitutes!

    There's an outside possibility that it might have stopped raining by December.
    If not, I suggest arrival by float plane and equipping yourself with an aqualung and/or snorkel.
    Preparation is all.

    While I'm here:

    Sesquipedalian

    Pertaining to or given to the use of overly long words.
    Almost self defining when you think about it.

    Which leads me to wonder why 'abbreviation' is such a long word.

    So that one would be inclined to abbreviate it.
    Almost self-fulfilling when you think about it.
    Even in its long form, it's still shorter than anti-sesquipedalian.
