Apologies.  At my first job to make things easier (it worked for us at the
time) we always called it:
"user sticky" (set uid, u+s)
"group sticky" (set gid, g+s)
"other sticky" (sticky, o+s)


Thanks for the quick correction !   And it is a bad habit of mine to
continue to use the wrong nomenclature :)  Thanks for the reminder!
