Natter 41: Why Do I Click on ita's Links?!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Irvine is er-vine (short e sound like the suffix er, and long i as in wine).
sarameg explains it better.
Thanks, ita, brenda and sara! I'll forward all your answers (the combination of them is what really helps, too - if one version is not 100% clear on one detail, the others complete it).
My brother is grateful, too. Is it even more "a stranger on the internet" if he's not in fact the one who's posting? He did know I was going to ask "your Buffy forum people", if that counts.
Am I the last one to know about Google SMS? Because that is WAY COOL.
No. I think I have the honor of being the last to know about Google betas. Although that particular one does me little good as I have only the most basic cellphone.
Selfishly, I'm hoping that NillyBro's sudden interest in Irvine means grad school, which would of course lead to regular Nilly Grand Tours.
I'm with ita on the pronunciation thing, fwiw.
