Clash of Christianities: Why Europe cannot understand Russia by Pepe Escobar opens with this:
Under an ubiquitous, toxic atmosphere of cognitive dissonance drenched in Russophobia, it’s absolutely impossible to have a meaningful discussion on finer points of Russian history and culture across the NATO space – a phenomenon I’m experiencing back in Paris right now, fresh from a long stint in Istanbul.
And I am immediately derailed by the "an" in front of "ubiquitous". Shouldn't that be an "a" instead of an "an"? I did some checking and it kind of depends on how you pronounce ubiquitous. If you pronounce it oo-bik-wit-us, then the "an" is correct, but if you pronounce it like right thinking stalwarts of Western Civilization, you pronounce it you-bik-wit-us, and you should use "a".
