    I agree. People seem unaware that the users here have such variety. Different countries, different languages, different ages, and different educational levels. Sometimes they pop off with flip answers that reveal that lack of knowledge and fail to address the actual question.

    Good job bringing this up. I was a little disappointed at people making fun of her. People should learn more about American/British spelling differences, ignorance bothers me a lot. Thank you.

    Can never have too many Maths. Words to live by.

    I really didn't care. As you can see my answer was just, "no" I don't like math. You can say the words how ever you were raised to say them.
