way... Besides that, you forgot more polluted.

I'm failing to see the point, not just the fact that it has nothing to do
with PG, but the fact that this would never come up in any conversation. I
mean _any_ conversation. And I'll have you know that I can get far enough
in Oh Canada to make it be as acceptable as I need it. For Pete's sakes...
I've even gone off to be rude again, but after all, I am an American :) I
know a little something of Canada - I watched Canadian Bacon :)
