Before Thunderhill, I said #1. After I heard it used there, #2. But I could only vote for one, so I voted for the one I used before I knew better. If you had spelled it with a dash (Krazi-K), there wouldn't have been this confusion. Or maybe that's what you wanted. Anyway, how DO you pronounce it?

I pronounce it both ways, techincally it is Crazy K.

It all started in the late 80's when I was running some bulletin boards I used the handle "KraZi KarMa". As I got access to the internet via ucsc's systems I had to truncate KraZi KarMa to 8 chars and lower case. Anyone miss gopher? So anyway, I became krazik (crazy k).

So there you go. Just currious how most you pronounce as it's just about always pronounced as kra-zik

For the record, I've been pronouncing it kra zik.

If it is "Crazy K"

Then problem is, it should be spelled:
Krazi K or Krazi-K. . .

Yup it's Sis-Op. Tho lots of people call it Sigh-Sop, which is odd because nobody ever typed it as is SySop
