I say scone..long "o" but I think the folks in England and thereabouts say scon..short "o." Maybe it's a case of "When in Rome etc.. When you're in England, say scon. And while you're at it, ask the "scon people" how many other foreign pronunciations they've decided to adopt. Do they go to the "loo?" Do their cars have bonnets instead of hoods? Are deliveries made in lorries instead of trucks? You get the idea.

The only time I say scon is if I want to trade for Superconductor Tech (trading at 2.23 right now on NASDAQ). Scone (scooooone) is very tasty, sconce (scahns) will light up your livingroom if you put a candle in it.
