How is this pronounced? How many syllables does it have?
meameamealokkapoowa oompa
I pronounce it "meer meer meer lok a poo a oom pa". In other words, nine syllables.

per http://www.polytope.net/hedrondude/scrapers.htm at the bottom it is pronounced ME ya ME ya ME ya LOCK a POO wa oom pa
That post above was not written by me - I guess I didn't see it back in January. (I would intuitively pronounce that phrase with twelve syllables, and I would have used X-SAMPA.)
