Yeah, it couldn't possibly be that the way he pronounced it (or the way
you heard it) made it sound different from what he intended. My guess
is he didn't submit it that wan in a written script. Correct me if I'm
wrong. All things being equal, I would assume that even a Hahvahd man
doesn't actually think the word is winch.
Although Mueller is said to be ratcheting things up recently - so maybe?
Could he be that clever?
