Concerning the opening lines of salespeople.  They blow it by trying to
pronounce my last name, Laman (pronounced like "lay-man" not like "la-man'"
nor like "la'-man").  I used to be bothered by people mispronouncing my last
name.  Now the mispronunciation warns me....

		Hello.. Mr. "la-man'"..... Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
