Prompted by catching up with the DBR podcast, I had to look up the pronunciation of Austin Peay, which their own website says is, indeed, correctly pronounced "Austin Pea". It sits very wrong on my ears, since I've been familiar with "Peay Vineyards" for a long time, which is rather unfortunately pronounced "Pay Vineyards" (and Peay Vineyard prices, while certainly not at the maximum for California Pinot noir, are...let's just say, "above average").
The "pea" pronunciation is generally much more innuendo-friendly, of course, so while it is jarring to my ears, at least I know the innuendo posts are at least relying on correctness (something that always bothered me about most of the Patrick Tapé humor).
Yes, I am a pedant, not a didact.
