i so want to pronounce this word WHORE-rip-u-LAY-shun... sort of like WHORE--uh-bulh but with more WHORE. maybe i just like writing WHORE in capital letters all over this post... it's just the mood i'm in i guess. WHORE!
but this pronunciation is different... you kind of have to add a bit of hillbilly twang to get it right: haw-rip-uh-LAY-shuhn
