But do stories like the origin being "ola kala" have any actual primary-source evidence? If not, they're just old wives' tales. This version has actual evidence. It has the first recorded use. It situates it in the context of the fad at the time. It shows that in the first usage the author included the expanded version because other people wouldn't know it. It shows how it was replied to be someone who had read the article. I find it odd when someone replies to a piece of research with their own story that they believe simply because they heard it first.
