Congratulations, Worcester!

[Dennis Degler]

Congratulations to you and your staff on your ISO accreditation, Lt. Grady. One dumb question: Where's Worcester? I couldn't find it in the article anywhere, and, being from Texas, we have a town named after practically every other city in the U.S, so, one saying he is from Boston, for example, doesn't really pinpoint it for us.

[David Grady]

We're in Massachusetts - right in the middle.

[George Reis]

The question isn't so much where it is, as how do you pronounce it, and why does it have that pronunciation?!

Just drop the 'r's!

Congrats on your certification success!

It's pronounced "WOO-stuh."
Really.
Now, pronounce "Peabody."
Nope.
It's PEE-ba-dee.
Ayuh.
