Paul,
It's not the fact that people misspell or mispronounce these terms that makes you raise an eyebrow from time to time. It's that they continue to do it after they've been corrected...several times.

Of course, I've got room to talk. I've been calling decals "stickers" for years because it annoys Robert Garelli.

BTW, doesn't Chicargo have an "R" in it?
