IIC - pronounciation?!

deanm (Dean) · #1 07-10-2010, 09:56 AM

Howdy all - please forgive my newbie naivety, but how should 'iceinspace' be pronounced?!

This has been puzzling me for a while: is it "ice in space" (which may be factual but of little relevance) or "I see in space" (which would be cunningly jocular!).

Any IIC veteran comments?

Considering Mikes' handle of iceman, it is definately 'ice in space'

Hi Dean. Yes it's ICE IN SPACE.

Iceinspace is a derivitive of Mikes "gaming handle" Iceman, when he was practicing his misspent youth days

so the line could go "Iceman now into astronomy"
shortened to "Iceinspace"

does that help?

i think Mike explained it in a thread somewhere, sometime back

OK - I'm convinced - quite a history there - Ice it is!

(Although "I see" retains some attraction!)

Hi Geoff,

Mike did explain it in a thread although I can't remember which one.

Your post above gives a good paraphrase of his explanation.
