tehehe. 

For the record, I believe I agree with your description -- which (I
believe) also matches up pretty well with the .wav.

I would say the best description of how I pronounce it (which may or
may not be right): is like 'rascal' but with an h. Though, perhaps
different people pronounce rascal differently than I do.

Anyway, I figured posting the wav was easier than trying to describe
it in words. I believe that wav was recorded by SPJ (in Nov 2005?) at
Shae Errison's (shapr) request for the purpose of finding out how SPJ
pronounces Haskell.
