She also tells people to think for themselves :)

My 8 yr old read it aloud yesterday as "I'm one". I always mentally pronounce it "ihm wahn". I don't think I've ever said it aloud. It's one of those blush words, where you don't know for sure how to say it, so you feel foolish saying it. :)

I originally rhymed it with "him wan," then I was told it was "I'm one."
I'm still in flux. I believe it is both.

Where WONDERground sounds okay; I'm rather fond of a more meandering
WANDERground as it is more reflective of the Thread (Fred) Drift found therein.

Quantum duality is a fact of nature. Sometimes a photon acts like a particle; sometimes a photon acts like a wave. In some situations an electron acts like a particle; in other situations the behavior of an electron can only be explained as a wave phenomenon. Similarly, it appears that in different situations "IMWAN" is pronounced different ways. This all makes my head hurt.

In some situations Frank is nice; in other situations Frank is rude. Simple quantum duality.

Never think of Frank as being rude; he's just being frank.

Come to think of it, sometimes he is rather rude.
It's normally called for, though.
