Speaking of DEEkayed, check out President Kennedy's speech that day he exhorted Americans to put a man on the moon in the next 10 years. Awfully close to DEEkayed. I thought it was because he was a New Englander. (He also said 'Cuber'.)(Some New Englanders have some atrange pronunciations. like 'drawring', for instance. Kendall? Is it also true of Maine?)
