Well...we're waiting. Are you going to tell us how to say it without butchering the language or are we to guess?

No Ed. I don't know the exact pronounciation. I have studied French for ten years but I'm a little rusty so I'd hate to steer you wrong. But to answer your other question, I am being myself. One should always be themselves. That applies to voiceover, stand up comedy, etc...
I like being myself. And I don't need some shield for recognition either.

I truly hope some fluent French speaker will help me with my quest. It would be most appreciated.

Are you sure it's not "SaintE-Marie aux Mines?"
With an "E" at the end of SAINT" ?

Thank you. Yes it was with an E. I have a musical selection that is part of my radio program and it was recorded that town.
