My daughter was engaged and we set out to find the best cake maker we could. We tasted a lot of different samples and none seemed to trick her trigger until we tasted ____. It was amazing!!! Then she signed the contract and that's when it went done hill. The woman I spoke with was court almost to the point of being rude.

As a result of my post, informing someone that there is no such word as "alot", this was the response:

Thank you for clearifying that up for me. I know there's 2 ways to spell the word alot but if it concerned me enough, I would have looked it up in the dictionary or chose a different word to use. Now that I think about it, I should have hyphenated the word a-lot.

Does that plus one override the posting of the...unique...word, "clearfifying", or that person's insistence on continuing to use the non-word "a lot", or his/her truly unique use of the non-word, "a-lot"?
