I say My SQL.... I have a pet peeve when people pronouce an abbreviation. I hate it... my emerging tech teacher calles a GUI a "gooey" it is really annoying... and ASCII as "asky". It just flips a nerve with me and drives me crazy.

I pronounce it Sequel, I also pronounce ASCII as Askii (yes, I am the incarnation of acronym-pronunciation). I draw the line at "Gooey" though..

Heh. Thats something someone needs to put in their next php / mysequel tutorial. rofl. I wonder how many people do pronounce it wrong. It would be pretty interesting if even top developers would do that.
