This is too funny. As I read the post that mentions Radia I was wondering how her name was pronounced. I always thought it was "rah dee uh", but I had an instructor who said it was "ray dee uh". I'd never known which was actually correct. That's similar to Paul's last name. I never knew how to pronounce Borghese until I heard it on his voice mail. :-) Hmm... it's also similar to Peter Van Oene's name. I think Peter and I have had this discussion before. Or how about Mr. Luhrooh?
