Surely misspelling Cincinnati isn't counted as a 'mistake' there must be a lot of popular ways to spell it, such as Cinncinnati, Cincinatti, Cincinnatti, Cincinatti, and maybe something with an S in there. I think that people in Cincinnati must be very sensitive about it, but then probably the people in Pitsburg OH, which is not so far away, also think that people shouldn't be spelling the name of their city like that of Pittsburgh PA. -- Mike Easter Mike Easter |
