	I have often suspected that Arizonans pronounced the names
    of their cities in strange ways so that they can tell natives
    from tourists (very important in Arizona).  Although I may be
    giving things away here, if you are in Arizona (northern anyway,
    my knowledge of north is greater than of south), the following
    rules apply:

    Seligman is pronounced se-LIG-min, not SEL-ig-min.
    Prescott is invariably pronounces Press-Kit.

    I assume most of you know that Tucson is pronounced Too-sahn,
    not Tuk-sun.
