<heh> Me, too! </heh> although I tend to say the 'i's with more of an
ee sound. This may be from years of mispronouncing latin in classical
music, where every director has a different canon of latin vowels and
consonants. I don't know.

But this is the point where Seth David Schoen comes in and puts us all
