Phonetic Alphabets

In an attempt to lighten up those tense customer telephone support moments where you have to spell things like UNIX commands or license strings letter by letter, I have been compiling my own phonetic alphabet where the letter that starts each word is silent (or at least has a different sound than the letter itself). Diseases can also be pretty funny, so I've added an alphabetic list of those, too.
Please e-mail me if you have words to add to the lists.
