I think I heard the name enough at awards ceremonies that it stuck in my brain.

I've never been to a competition with Syosset, so I wouldn't know, but I've always said SYO-set.
"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12

I have no regrets.

I think the poll had an option for "sai-OH-sit," which sounds similar if you say it out loud (English spelling is great, isn't it?).

It was sai-OH-set. Which is similar, but not quite correct.

I believe the term is recording. I believe the question was originally along the lines of a scioly convention. Is it plausible?

It's sad how much laughter I got out of bed at 12:30 pm today. Yay for no school!

Certain people (such as myself) have a sensitivity to certain aldehydes in cilantro that also appear in dish soaps. To most people, cilantro has a pleasant tangy/citrusy flavor but others think it tastes like dish soap.
