You're welcome. I'm sure the flames are yet to come.

According to Merriam-Webster Online dictionary, the proper pronounciation is, 'kI-"Ot, kI-'O-tE' ... so either way is correct, with kI-Ot being preferable.

I think that saying Ki-O-Tee (at least around here) is more of a slang term. I do think Ki-Ot is more proper.
