what would we do without Welsh?

It's awfully good for making unpronounceable acronyms suddenly pronounceable.  In particular, as used casually by a CA-based colleague, "the G. W. T." becomes "the goot" (rhymes with "boot").  Thank you, Welsh, for that vowel.  I know it'll save me precious microseconds in my speech.
