Oh well. There are more important issues than pronunciation (such as rpm -Uvh for the rpm's...), but a little levity never exacerberated any problems.... (laughter is the best medicine!). Maybe we need you to record the canonical pronunciation (I'll even encode to RealAudio -- and will donate the RealServer bandwidth!), like Linus did for linux. (lee-nooks...). Cheers....
