..and it's "Eh!".... Ya'll! One of these days you Yanks will learn how
to
pronounce the letter "R"... maybe.

And you Cannucks might just learn that Z is pronounce Zee, not zed . . .
maybe.

Actually it is zed, the way the English language is.
And that stuff you put in your cars is petrol...it's a liquid, not a
gas

I'll grant you one point: why we call it an "elevator" is beyond me, when
"lift" is brief and less pretentious.
