drum:
A belated welcome to a lovely place.
Back to your original question about pronouncing h's. You say that you would say and I presume write this title as "An Historical Examination of the Pronunciation of H." But would you write (and say) "An History of the Pronunciation" or "A History?" If you would use "an" in the first instance and "a" in the second, pray tell why.
