Marilyn Vos Savant and those 'gry' words

[Joanne Proctor <jmproctor@MPHM.COM>]

Hi,
  Did any of you happen to see this column in today's issue of the Parade
Magazine in today's newspaper?  Someone wrote in and said the problem with
this is that it was meant as an "oral" question.  The questioner says that
there are at least three words in the English Language that end in "g or y"
and goes on to use the word "say" several times indicating that the listener
"says" the third word many times a day. It is the listener who assumes the
word ends in "gry."  It doesn't work in print.
I just thought I'd share this explanation.
