Here is a quote from one of your countrymen who wrote before the effects of your little rebellion against the Crown became as evident in the language as it is now.

"BETWEEN six and nine we made ten miles, which was plenty for a horse carrying triple -- man, woman, and armor; then we stopped for a long nooning under some trees by a limpid brook."

Mark Twain, from "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court"

I trust that this post was written in a sufficiently limpid style, and that it will be understood by the barbarians to the south.

Rebellion?!
