If I'm reading this correctly it's saying about 1 in 4 people in Dublin pronounce it like "gone" and that is absolutely false. Never once have I ever heard that pronunciation here.

CONE GANG!

edit: I'd be curious how other English speaking countries pronounce it.

Reading through replies it seems Americans are cone heads while Aussies are gone. Fascinating.
