Geez...it looks like out of all the people that posted on that thread, only Robbo knows the whole story and is thoroughly acquainted with what he is talking about, and he is STILL THE ONLY ONE OF YOU BRITS AND EUROPEANS THAT CAN SPELL CORRECTLY SO WE AMERICANS KNOW WHAT HE'S TRYING TO SAY!!!
Not to massage your ego, Robbo, but you're exactly on the mark on this one. I happen to be part English, but also Scottish, Irish, German, and Choctaw (specific group of Native American resident in south Alabama).
