Subject: By Londons Northern Line to Battersea
Why are you changing the subject line? It creates a new thread each
time you do that. It makes a mess.
Original subject was "By Northern Line to Battersea".
Because readers in misc.transport.urban-transit may not know that the
"Northern Line" and "Battersea" relate to London, England.
They probably don't care either and if they did they'd probably already
subscribe to utl.
As someone who is following the thread with interest on
misc.transport.urban-transit and who doesn't want to follow another
newsgroup, I appreciate the cross=posting. Residing in Canada, I'm
used to both US and British spellings and really don't care which are
used.
Thank you Clark. You are welcome.
Back when misc.transport.urban-transit was a flourishing group there
was very little posted about London. IMHO this is a pity. London has
the oldest metro network and there are always developments there.
Whilst one is aware that Canadian English is closer in syntax and
spelling to the UK variety than the US. One is also aware that
Canadians are familiar with the US variations.
Personally I like much of Noah Webster's anglicized standard English.
Many of the UK spellings reflect their French origin.
Alright eh? :-)
