And apparently they still use "E" instead of "F" in Michigan or parts thereof. At least, certain Frazz comic strips seem to suggest as much.

Lawl! :lol:


...Is there such a thing as a silent filibuster?



Googling in process....



hmmm...seems to be yes... :grin:
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

It's the NATO phonetic alphabet. Lots of different groups use it: military, amateur radio, air control, etc. Very handy when the quality of communications can't be ensured.
