People, people, people, Geri was joking on the spelling as she has done with
everything else she has talked about all these years.  Has anyone read her
new book "Standing as Straight as I Can"?  What did you think of it?  I
hope it comes out in audio format one day.

Thanks, Bettina "Crack a smile, its nature's best addictive medicine.

Cerebral is spelled only one way
C-E-R-E-B-R-A-L

It's pronounced se-ree-bral - no other pronunciation is correct

Many Americans and those influenced by the US pronounce it  ser-a-bal -=20
which is wrong - note that the erroneous pronunciation does not conform to=
=20
the correct spelling.=20
