This is the first time I've heard URL prounounced "Earl." What about you?

...Or maybe I heard it once before but decided not to remember because it sounds stupid.

I've heard it pronounced like that. Mostly from people who don't realize it's an acronym.

I've heard t said that way by professionals. Just like POP when talking about email is an acroynm. People just try to say things differently for different reasons.

And here I thought it was just because they were actors. It makes sense with radar, et al, but URL is just silly. (and yes, I work for the taste police)
