Why is "slaughter" just laughter with an S in front of it? A slaughter is no laughing matter. Why couldn't slaughter have been spelled sloughter - but maybe sloughs would take offence.
Why is "Of" pronounced "Uv" not "Ough" - and who the hell decided that U+G+H = F? Thats a damned pre-algebra equation not good language. And why is "tion" pronounced "shun" and not "tee-on" - the crafters of spelled English were either idiots themselves or had terribly twisted but dry senses of humor. Or Humour if you are a Brit.
If the ocean gets more saline each year due to "global warming" or climate change - why aren't the greenyweeny types demanding we build desalination plants and encouraging people to eat more salt? Save a fish - salt your fish!
I should go to bed and try to get some sleep...
