Nah, I get that some people are more visual than others, but what threw me was not supplying a pronunciation for someone's NAME, and more to the point, not even being able to register that name when heard. I mean... Iskierka - I can almost understand that one. But Granby? pretty simple.
(Then again I remember A doing sometime similar a couple years ago because I mentioned Darfour and she gets her news primarily from websites, so had never heard it pronounced and didn't realize that's how it was pronounced. It's still weird!)
