Also Canadian spelling. Actually, some years ago, American spellings were more common in Canada but there was a switch back to our (partially) British roots and we now put a "u" in most of the "...our" words. And we have always spelled the thing you hand over your money with as a "cheque." It's the little things that keep us a bit different from our American cousins, eh? And the guns, but we won't go there. ;-) -- Richard Langley Quoting Bill B: > Spelling is not my forte, and I mistook the UK spelling of "color" to > mean "colure," so a bit surprised by the footage. > > I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box :-) > > Bill B > > : http://fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=124003 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Richard B.
