Absolutely and Chirac recently stormed out of a presentation from a leading french businessman because he spoke in English claiming it to be the "International language of business" -


If you consider that the US is the biggest 'business' country in the world - we should probably defer to their spelling of things these days.


Controversial I know -


PS Nate - when can I come over for a free holiday?






Soon, mate, soon!


I guess pants can equal underpants in your aged world... But I don't follow. Pants are, erm, pants, Jeans, Trousers (Jeans are not Trousers), etc...


Don't think the French would, either. Pantalons <> underpants... Did I just reference the French?

I even voted wrong because I assumed pants to mean the long thingies covering your legs (jeans, trousers, whatever).  I read that first post thinking "why in the world would you need 20 pairs of pants, even less 60 ..." but now I get it.  Undies.  Yeah, 20ish is about right for me, too ...
