I've been reading a certain article about the speech synthesizer add-on for the Magnavox Odyssey 2 computer, and one of the problems it has is with the pronunciation of "Linda" when spelled the conventional way. The problem is that the speech synthesizer treats the "i" in "Linda" as a "long i" as in "find" whereas spelling the name as "Lynda" would then give out the pronunciation as intended, with the "short i" as in "wind."

Somehow this was a bug. . . correct?
