Getting the names wrong

By Dondis, Roger at Dec 01, 2010 18:53 PM

Hate to nitpick but Paul, if you're going to write a book on the Tea Party, you should at the very least make an effort to get the names right.
It's Sharon ANGLE, not "Angel", and AYN Rand, Not "IAN" Rand.

Are you referring to the pronounciation? 

In US midwest English, "angle" and "angel' are very similar.  As far as the contemptable Rand, I've heard it pronounced: "Ann Rand",  "Ayen Rand" "Ayeen Rand" and "Ian Rand".
