 "Also, especially British, cap·i·tal·ise."
 
 Your Brits crack me up.  : )
 
 Seriously though, English was not my first language so I am quite proud of the
 advancements I have made, regardless of what England and Britain think of my gains.
 
 Believe this or not, I was at one point in my life contemplating using standard "British."
 
 That is capitalise, colour, and other such "oddities."
 
 A Cajun (from Louisiana) told me that I was a "coon" because of that.  Hence, my adherence
 to standard American English.

 P.S.  I have been drinking.  Most or all of what I have conveyed is best ignored by
 humans.
