Yikes! Which pronunciation is that? The one that sounds like mine (fine, dine, sine, line, pine, vine, wine, etc) with -icks or -ucks on the end, or the one that sounds like bin (fin, gin, kin, min, pin, sin, tin, win, etc) with -icks or -ucks on the end? I've changed back and forth twice already! :-( I say lin-icks now but I've always felt line-ucks was more natural for westerners, perhaps because of Linus from the peanuts cartoons... :-) ...RickM... -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
