EDITOR'S NOTE – AT 8:56 P.M. ET:  A number of readers have asked how to spell the last name of the Libyan dictator, Moammar _______.   The fact is that the Western press uses a number of spellings.  Our style here is to use the spelling used in the material we're quoting, and in our comment on that material.  That means that the spelling may vary from post to post. 

This policy will continue until Libya has a leader named O'Hara.
