Woo's to say?

    Now that there's an impending epidemic, I think it behooves the media announcers to say it right.  Woomever pronounces the disease wooping cough deserves to be whomped, whopped,  then whooshed into  a whorl of whortleberries for such a whopper. (I can't think of any other "w-h-o" words that start with the sound of "w".   It's true, many of the "wh" words can be pronounced with either the w or h sound, but the h is kind of a faint,  breathy sound, such as either wap or (h)wap.   You don't say "with a woop and a holler"  any more than you would say "The Best Little Woorhouse in Texas."  It is pronounced "hooping cough."   I hope I make myself clear.
