  • Getting to the root of 'OK'. I was also aware of the connection with Martin Van Buren, 'Old Kinderhook', and the article dovetails this with OK's probable origin in Boston. In written form I've definitely developed a strong preference for the elegant "okay" as opposed to the awkward-looking "OK", which in comparison just looks clumsy in the middle of a sentence.
