Not really, screen. Because as an uninterested party of substantial frivolity myself, I am quite disinterested in searching for more. This is one of my all-time pet peeves, now alas becoming more and more common.
And here's another ... the pronunciation of kilometre. I will accept kill-om/-eter if you agree to say mill-im/-eter, cent-im/-eter, etc. These are units of length, related to the standard metre, not measuring devices such as altimeter (US pron.) or galvanometer. Boy, I bet this starts some kind of argument!
