Lol! Yeah right!: In the late 1700's, the royal family decided that certain letters and sounds in the language sounded ugly, so they changed the pronunciation. The colonies, in one of their first acts of rebellion, refused to change how they talked.

If the person posting this message left their e-mail address, we inserted some random characters to prevent spammers from harvesting their address. Spammers do this with automated "bots" that constantly search the Web looking for e-mail addresses. Since you're a human being, not a bot, you can easily obtain the real address by removing the text that says "ThisisToPreventSpam-XYZ-RemoveThis." including the random number XYZ and the period at the end. For example, <info@ThisIsToPreventSpam-123-RemoveThis.interesting.com> would become <info@interesting.com>.
