Just couldn't pass on this one...
Must people think of SCSI as 'scuzzy,' however it has also been referred
to as 'sexy' - although this is certainly a 'minority' viewpoint. Of
course, since I'm somewhat iconoclastic and also like to have fun with
the vernacular when possible, I use this pronunciation at times around
techno-geeks who take their terminology a little too seriously. I think
it helps to 'master' the language, and also helps to avoid becoming a
'slave' to convention.
