No "Oscar" for OED

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

The latest OED revision has been released, I usually get a reminder of this, 
but it hasn't arrived in my e-mail.
  
My "Oscar" work is here as the first citation, but the long, later 
explanation of the origin of the term (provided in 1975 by the same Daily News writer) 
is completely missing. The name "Sidney Skolsky" is nowhere to be found.
