- Nope.. the ACTUAL radio program says "zebra crossing" (with a short "e"
- sound)... HOWEVER, I know there is an altered version of the radio program.
- The main reason the program was altered was to change the name of the
- worst poet in the universe (they originally used the name of a REAL person,
- and he threatened to sue)... Its possible that they made the zebra/pedestrian
- change then too.
