    I forgive you for not using a proper test group for your 'test'
    becuase I saw your User-Agent:

    User-Agent: PhoNews/3.6.0 (Android/9)

    Am I right that this is a completely free news group reader for the
    Android platform?

    Sean Connery's 's' was NOT a lisp 'sh'.

    http://dialectblog.com/2012/05/22/sean-connerys-s/

    I was thinking that his pronunciation may be an apico-alveolar or
    even retroflex fricative as opposed to (what I think is) the more
    usual lamino-alveolar fricative of English. This may sound like a
    “sh” to people who don’t use it.

    Connery’s /s/ has always struck me as unusually apical, meaning that
    it is pronounced with the tip of the tongue rather than the blade
    (i.e. top surface). Play around with your tongue a bit while saying
    /s/, and you’ll notice that the tip-of-the-tongue variety indeed
    sounds slightly closer to English ‘sh.’ No wonder comedians have been making jokes about ‘Her Majeshty’s Shecret Shervice’ for years.

    That same article discusses the Iberian Castilian Spanish 's' which is
    kinda 'th' -- I had a Spanish teacher in college who did that.

    Also, in an early '56 movie, SC played the gangsta' Spike w/ a stutter.

    I know, but there's no other way of putting that in writing, short of
    resorting to phonetic script — which I don't particularly master, notwithstanding that I was taught the basics in high school.

    Besides, had I intended it to be written as a lisp, then I would have
    written "th" instead of "sh". ;)

    Anyway, October is only 10 days away anymore — at least, for those of
    us living in Western Europe — albeit that I don't know whether it'll be
    a red one. :p
