Yes it seems language has a life of it's own, no matter how much we might like to pin it down! :-) Thank goodness for it though, think how boring this world would be otherwise!
Patrick "Ilsa, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. " Bogart as Rick in Casablanca "Well, I can't believe I Can't Believe It's Not Butter and the stuff I can't believe is not I Can't Believe It's Not Butter are not butter, and I believe that they both just might in fact be butter, but in cunning disguises, and in fact there's a lot more butter out there than we believe."

Is.... just like every country has their own language and dialects, every COUNTRY has it's own languages and dialects. (yes, repeated on purpose) England and America, are not the same country....therefore, different languages and dialects. Yes, once upon a time, they were the same, but not ANYMORE. So let the English pronounce and spell their "English" words any way they want. The American will do the same with the "American" language. Erika (with a *K*) "Life... is like a grapefruit.
