I'm exactly the opposite.
yeah, pretty much the same.

sometimes eye-ther, depending on context, but most of the time ee-ther.

Opposite of this. Mostly eye-ther, sometimes ee-ther in certain contexts.

Well, don't really know both i guess.
When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.

And Ofc. There is always only one truth!

I usually pronounce it as ee-ther but I think I sometimes say eye-ther too.

it depends on the situation.
Detective Movies Contest 2013: Information Thread  Current Faceoff

"The energies of our system will decay; the glory of the sun will be dimmed, and the earth, tideless and inert, will no longer tolerate the race which has for a moment disturbed its solitude. Man will go down into the pit, and all his thoughts will perish. The uneasy consciousness, which in this obscure corner has for a brief space broken the contented silence of the universe, will be at rest. Matter will know itself no longer. 'Imperishable monuments' and 'immortal deeds,' death itself, and love stronger than death, will be as though they had never been."

Usually eye-ther (ayther) and rarely also eether (îther), but I mostly pronounce it as ey-ther (eyther), as in neigh :x
Same goes for "neither", obviously :x
Also, my dictionary seems to prefer ayther :x

Stupid English spelling...
If  ;), :D, ;D, ::), :P, :-X, :o or >:D are attached, that paragraph may not be 100% serious. Seriously.
