"An article on Nov. 13 about Sean Bedford, the Georgia Tech offensive lineman who is also an aerospace engineering major, misstated the terms that David Scarborough, a senior research engineer, used in teaching the jet and rocket propulsion class. The terms were 'isentropic flow,' 'stagnation states' and 'adiabatic efficiency for the diffuser' – not 'isotropic stagnation state' and 'idiomatic deficiency for diffuser.'"

Now if it had been Professor Irwin Corey it would have been right on.
Looks like someone's been to the Gladwell school of Igentranscription.
If not for my idiomatic deficiency, I would have become a great writer.
Sports reporter or science reporter? Not that there's much of a difference in terms of actual scientific literacy.
"idiomatic deficiency for diffuser"
Best description of "Ronbo" ever.
Oh yeah? Well were you adopted by a white family, and is your mom Sandra Bullock?
Apparently, journalism isn't rocket science either.
