That Wiki link to the Simpson's gloss was worth clicking. Funny stuff.

But with regards this :

"Nucular"

Homer's mis-clarification to his navy officer on the pronunciation of nuclear.
The word has also been used in the television show Family Guy. In the "Da Boom!" episode, after Lois chides Peter for scaring the kids with his "nuclear-holocaust nonsense", Peter replies, "You said 'nuclear'. It's 'nucular', dummy. The 'S' is silent."

Current President George W. Bush, in an amusing side-note, also pronounces 'nuclear' this way. Perhaps he is also a Simpsons fan? Or perhaps not...

Where do you stand? I used to say "new-clear" but was then corrected by someone who said "ah, it's "new-kyu-lah" and now, well, I'm just confused.
