Blotanical users:

In your mind, does the first syllable of "Blotanical" sound more like "bloat" or like "blot?"

No reason. Just curious.

    Blot for me too: it just occurred to me that it could also be "bloat," a few days ago, and I wondered. 'Cause one does hear bow-tanical occasionally.

    I "hear" blow-tanical, but seem to say bluh-tanical.
