This reminds me about the new youtube feature which can automatically create subtitles.
You should try it sometime. The subtitles it creates are of the 'hoglahoo' quality.

dunno why but the smiley icons aren't showing up with the edit .... MI-5 conspiracy ? LOL

I visited the US. Imo in some states the people have not yet fully understood the fact that the 1812 one is finished, and they lost.

That's because hardly anyone accepts that we "lost" the war.... Despite the fact that scholars say either 1) it was a stalemate, 2) we lost, or 3) we both won and the "Indians" lost, most of us think that we won the war of 1812... I guess not losing decidedly is a "win"

Oh, I dunno, we still spell 'favorite' like that instead of like this ..... 'favourite'..... so we must have won ....
