Early in my career, I started pronouncing CICS - kicks. Others sysprogs tried correcting me: C-I-C-S. Then I went to a class and found that I was not the only one pronouncing it - kicks. I polled my classmates and kicks won. I felt good. So no matter what IBM renames it; if it looks like CICS, runs like CICS, I'm going to call it kicks.
