CV From: "Costas Vlachos"
How do the Greeks pronounce "gigas"? The "jig-a" pronounciation
for giga seems to be in more-or-less in keeping with "gigantic".


CV The Greek pronunciation for "giga" uses hard "g" sounds, just like
CV "Greek". Not like "gigantic". Do people use the "jig-a" way? Never
CV heard of it.
CV Costas

Sure some do, i.e. the professor in "Back to the Future"...

.... Is reactance then illusory? No, it just appears that way...
