From an AP story on the wire today:
"Computer models drawn by scientists at the Coast Guard and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predict the spill will wash out to sea and not glom onto the shores . . .."
I thought glom had a differednt meaning: "I would glom onto the meaning of the statement" being something akin to "I would figure (puzzle) out or perhaps stumble upon the meaning of the statement."
It's not a word I would use. Would any of you use it? And if so, how?
