Right. Lol. Hide with your model stash.
Had a calculous math teacher in the 70's, he said zed, and he was from Texas. M and I, no wait, it was A and M, I think. Lol. The college he was from... A&M.
Anyway, I asked him once, "Do you mean to say zee"? He said no, it's Zed.
I called it "zed" thru the class and passed. Somehow.
