I have a rant . . .

I was reading an article in the Star Tribune the other day and it was discussing how people misuse words and phrases and one came to mind for me. Realtor -- why does EVERYONE I know say "realator." There is no "a" between the "l" and the "t," but yet everyone says "realator." I have never met anyone -- no one -- zippo -- that says it correctly (except for me, of course!) and I'm not kidding. I cringe every time I hear someone say it wrong. It's kind of like "sandwich." Most people I know say "samwich." Excuse me? How do you get an "m" out of "nd?" I just don't get it.
