"Throat-warbler Mangrove."

No, just kidding. It's half-way between "dawn-teh" and "dawn-tay."

Dobie? Nah. I just took advantage of Tante's thread to get an important message out there. The day I do a dobie is the day I use a smiley face. Or write a landmark thread.

Icarus, yes. I also disdain responding to any questions asked by people named for mythological characters.

Actually, I probably could hit 1000 posts around Easter...hmm...

Nah.

I think it's pronounced like "T- ante". [Razz]
"(D)ante mortem"
