OK let's see if I have this right: (BTW what follows is in fun so don't get your knichers all atwist!) Languages have no business evolving when geographically separated. You should move to the states then. 68% of Americans do not believe in evolution by natural selection vs
62% of Britons. (That's closer than I thought before I looked it up. And here I though you Britons were so smart and sophisticated!)
While you are packing maybe you can explain to me how cars in England even run after being filled with petrol. "Petrol" is short for "petroleum," the black goo that comes out of the ground, while "gas" is short for "gasoline," the clear volatile liquid that goes in cars. And what's with kiLOmeters? You don't say kiLOgrams, do you? Or kiLOcycles?
