One of the local credit unions, SECU uses the sound of SeeQue in their 
commercials.

I suppose you could say C pause Q, but most folks say CQ with no pause, and so 
it "sounds" like a prosign.

I suppose the next thing we can do is discuss how many low power angels can 
dance on the head of a pin...and for the real devotees, a thread could be 
started about how many nano angels are in an atom.

I think I'll go work some CW(pronounced SeeDoubleYou), not See Wubbia
