Please tell me everyone knows how to pronounce Mojave. As in, three syllables, not two, Mo-HA-ve, not MO-jayve. I knew how to pronounce that before I moved out West, but I've heard many an Easterner use the MO-jayve pronounciation.

Also, San Francisco is not pronounced "Frisco."
When people do pronounce it that way, I think it's OK to hit them.
