"I frequently pluck wild apples of so rich and spicy a flavor that I wonder all orchardists do not get a scion from that tree, and I fail not to bring home my pockets full. But perchance, when I take one out of my desk and taste it in my chamber I find it unexpectedly crude,--sour enough to set a squirrel's teeth on edge and make a jay scream." - 'Wild Apples', Henry David Thoreau.

Possibly. Were you one of those skinny boys who glowed white? ;)

I first heard it in some church service or another.

I first heard this word in the original Tomb Raider game. Should I be ashamed to admit that?

Sometimes the wrong pronunciation just sounds better, though. :-)

I always pronounced this wrong when reading "The Scions of Shannara", until I said it out loud and my father laughed at me.
