I am surprised someone hasn't mentioned the one about an uncle named Jack and assistance from his nephew in dismounting a horse.

I asked a friend that question once and he said "done it". Equestrians do a lot of things which the rest of us never consider.

At least you know how to edit.

So many don't know how or just don't even try.

You're opinions are all great. Your correct with you're observations.

(Yeah, this one is a pet annoyance of mine. I don't own a "correct".) ;)

I think it's the way it sounds, too.

For instance, the word 'Hotel' starts with a consonant but most English language types will say 'an Hotel' not 'a hotel'

It's confusing sometimes. In alpha-numeric systems, the letter 'H' usually isn't even given a value.
