I thought/still think that the "S" stands for "Substitue" not "Super"...

When I first saw it in a place far, far away and long, long ago, I  
thought sudo should be said the same way as pseudo, since I figured  
it was a unix pun as you were pretending to be root, thus pseudo/sudo  
(super user do [something]) root.
