[Ads-l] how to say "Carnegie"

[Tom Zurinskas]

There's a bit in "60 Minutes" about Andrew Carnegie, the kid from Scotland who came to US in 1835 at 13 and became twice as rich as Bill Gates is now.   They said his name should have stress on the second syllable not the first.  Car-NAY-gee  ~Kaarnnaegee , which is less easy to say.
