I got an extraordinary number of comments on my post on the Chilean Spanish pronunciation of Pinochet. (For me, anyway; the senior writers here at Language Log seem to get at least this many comments on a daily basis.) I've been responding to most of the comments in the comments area itself, but I think it's worth compiling some of it and following up on the original post with some more details. If you're interested, those details can be found over on phonoloblog.
