Letter to the editor: Correction of a correction

Regarding the correction of a correction of an error appearing in Thursday's paper, I thought I should extend the chain. The writer called 'ACT' an acronym. In reality, 'ACT' is never used as an acronym, since an acronym, by definition, forms a pronounced word, such as radar, laser, snafu, etc. We never call this test the 'act.' At any rate, the irony of the situation was even sweeter the second time.
