Jafo - It isn't 'phyilosophical differences'...it's the way you murder the English vocabulary.
i would like to take issue with this

i have a lovely vocabulary, and an interesting and creative way with words and wording. its just that i dont see why i should prefer one arbitary ordering of letters over another one
anyway, i stand by my claim that the education system is at fault. after 3 years of French lessions, i got a G in GCSE French, which means i managed to turn up, but got my name wrong
i mean, if they are going to ask who i am, cannot they do it in English?
however, i have become compitent in at least 12 different computer languages, which shows my issue is with human language, not with languages in general.
i was good at chemical names, they make sense, unlike english words. they show you a rule in english at school, and then spend 3 weeks telling you not to use it *sigh*
anyway, people normally understand me, so i cannot be that bad, can i?
