[pct-l] Oregon, My Oregon...or whatever our song is

[Suzannah Swinehart]

I have to protest. As a lifelong resident of that state sandwiched between WA an CA, it's 

Or - eh - gun

With a short e, like in net. I can't think of any natives I know that say it with a long e. Maybe on 
the other side of the state...


Now: how about we take up the pronunciation of Washington? Or is it Warshington?
