Zach Weiner at Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal has a recent post about the different pronunciations of "nuclear"
Weiner's comic (here) bases its humor off the idea that the nu-kyu-lar pronunciation is
so abhorrent that a physicist would be incapable of pronouncing it that way without imploding. It is a funny comic (as most of his are), but I am mesmerized by how this word has become somewhat of a litmus test for academia and the political left.
Do the Tenants know of other words with such political cache?
