    I wish all of you Europeans would learn proper English. So much better than US English. Not to mention it makes you look smarter than you are.

    It is funny. I've had a Scottish teacher in secondary school, and a californian teacher in the academy. Later, by choice more than program I chose british english over american. Sorry to all americans, but I like the accents better. A lot more expressive.

    COLOR! Not Colour.

    ...I learned REAL english in America, which is kind of odd I suppose. I blame it on the private school system.

    Color is hard to say, it reads like col, as in collie; and or, as in or. It sounds like a mentally retarded 8 year old learning English.
    Colour works seemlessly, incomplicated.
    It was not theirs to reason why,
    It was not theirs to make reply,
    It was theirs but to do or die.
