Okay, I have to ask. Why the spelling "Steengkeeng"? I understand -eeng, since many people have /IN/ there (I use /iN/ myself), but isn't "stink" normally /stiNk/? Or, even if they're both short normally, wouldn't the "ngk" be redundant? It's not normally /stInkIN/, is it? -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'.
