Just curious how you guys pronounce Nuclear.
It deives me nuts when I hear someone say "nucular", I have even heard people educated in their own field pronounce it incorrectly.
How do you pronounce it?

Listen to the president say it some time. I've heard it pronounced wrong a lot though.

It's akin to a realtor referring to themselves as a "re-la-tor". Up next on the poll: Brett Favvv-ruh.

its "nu-cle-ar" because thats how its spelled, its not spelled Nu-cu-lar. theres no second u so it shouldnt be pronounced that way.
