(...) Why? If it were spelt 'kluge', as in 'luge', I would agreed, but as it is spelt 'kludge', I think that it should be pronounced as per 'fudge', 'sludge' etc. Martin (24 years ago, 11-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) A Kludge sounds like our term 'fudge' which is analagous to a bodge. :-) Steve (24 years ago, 9-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
