    Hey, we speak like we're told is right. Except for the fact that probably 50% of the people say "herb" anyway. So . . . blame it on the Cockneys. Blame it all on the Cockneys.

    I found another: Dodona is some sort of ridiclous ancient greek oracle. Said to be a sharp tactician, you can see where they get Dodonna from. Intriguing! SW names are one of two camps: silly simpled names, or greco-mesopotamia origin. [face_thinking]
