With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince.
With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.

Reminds me of when digital watches first appeared.
I always had the urge to answer something like for instance 'one thousand three hundred and twenty-four' when soneone asked me for the time.

dva je'an je'an dva. I never thought of pronouncing it in English. However, it applies only of album/song titles, the band's names are always pronounced (approximaltely) in their native language, even if containing numerals. No-one in my country will say "oo dva" instead of "yoo two".
However, over here everyone pronounces Led Zeppelin as Led Tseppelin. Which makes sense since Zeppelin is a German name, right?

If it is anything like the other Rush albums then it is pronounced over-rated

Sounds fun learning Finnish 
That's very Klingonish if I do say so myself, mainly because of the mass of K's!

Are you Klingon by any chance good sir?
I'd say it's pronounced 2112 to be honest...
Not that hard, jeez...

That's okay. A lot of the time there are a ton of guys with foreign names that I don't know how to pronounce, and I'm shocked to see an interview of them and their names are pronounced completely different from what I thought (Thomas Haake)
More importantly, how do you pronounce that Ayreon album's name?
