To this day loads of people pronounce it crazy , instead of the simple "Nick at Ilynx"
Ah...more memories!

The first time I read it on a board, I mentally took a few shots at it, and came up with "nick-AT-uh-links." It seemed logical, since I had no knowledge of the world's number one amateur free site. (Which was nominated for an AVN award the same year my story site was, for you trivia freaks in the audience.) It wasn't until I asked the booming voice on the phone how to pronounce it that I got the correct pronounciation. "Oh," I said, as the explanation made perfect sense.

And The Actual became "Technick," due to an incredible proficiency with making stuff whiz around.
