>Well, for starters you could at least pretend there was an R in there somewhere.

Oh, I do pronounce the "r", it is just that you guys can't hear it! I suggest a hearing test.

If the "r" was missing it would sound like "fox" and we'd be in the feral thread with lots of angry Ozzies (they are very fond of the European fox and its favourite snack the European rabbit), then where would we be?

In forks, the "r" sounds just like an "r" should, are you suggesting that I speak Cornish?

Now back to some other good words: Aluminium, favourite, orientate ... mumble, mumble, lets see how many people I can upset today!
