No, it's not. That is to say, the word that the Doc says isn't "gigawatts". He says "jigga-watts". The correct pronunciation of the term has a hard "g", like in "good", and any actual scientist would know this. Besides which, if I'm not mistaken, he uses it as a measure of energy, rather than power (which is rate of change in energy over time), and therefore it cannot be GW.
