I listen to a lot of Brit documentaries. I love listening
to brits struggle with pronouncing "Glacier" and "Controversy",
especially Stevie (Steven Fry) and Simon Whistler. Same
word, sound way, way different.

Funny, our two resident Brit troll, ooops, friends (now
you have me doing it) have not chimed in.


Perhaps they're afraid I have a gun.

... and you drive on the right side of the road.

18 Countries/Nations drive on the left.

Australia
Caribbean Islands*
Channel Islands
Cyprus
Japan
Hong Kong
India
Isle of Man
Ireland
Jamaica
Kenya
Malta
Malaysia
New Zealand
South Africa
Singapore
Thailand
UK

Very interesting. If the US would have adopted the left side
driving, it
would have been much easier for us savage uncivilized Americans to
roll
down the right side window and shoot our guns at people.

That would have made the American population half what it is today. I
gather from friends and colleagues going on holiday in America that
road
rage is normally fatal.

They must be the same source

Sources. Plural.

you gather all your info. I suggest you
seek other sources for actual facts.

I don't call you a reliable source.


Because you're too stupid to comprehend facts.


Your word does not equal a fact.


You're still too stupid to comprehend facts.
