Steve "Like, y'know" K on NPR

[jester at PANIX.COM]

Attentive list members may have heard our very own
Steve Kleinedler, described as Pronunciation Editor
of the American Heritage Dictionary, on NPR's Morning
Edition today. Aside from initial hesitation during
which he referred to English teachers who "like, y'know"
cane people for pronunciation errors, he did a great
job of holding up the mantle for all of us, including
a great discussion of the "nuclear"/"nuke-yoo-lar" debate.

Should be available online by tomorrow!

Congrats!
