Tim,

    Howdy from the warm sunny Southwest, where the temp is around 80:

in writing [fle:g], are you indicating what I would write /fleyg/ (rhyming

with <plague>) or /flEg/? I always say /flaeg/, but my Southern friends

and relatives say /flaeyg/. /flEg/ (or [flE:g])would sound very Yankee to me.

    Rudy
