Of all the many crimes against the English language committed by people from the USA, I think the only one which I'd make a capital offence is that of refusing to pronounce the "L" in "soldering".@KaraLG84 @Anomnomnomaly @losttourist Webster is the one who's responsible for creating what's often called "simplified English".
