Noticing in the files the continued gap in terminology. Let's settle it by asking an expert.

Must get to work, I have to take my truck down to get a load of sleepers.
Have a good one....John.

you guys are confusing English with American

They ARE two different languages...and believe it or not, there are more ENGISH speakers than American.

Actually, China has the 2nd largest English speaking people in the world.
