Tony,

In Australia no doubt you are correct, but English as used on the
American continent differs in some details with English in England,
which I presume is closer to what you have on your continent.

My dictionary lists "humour" and says nothing more about it than
"chiefly Brit. HUMOR."  To get the ten definitions you have the look up
the spelling usually used here.  Also, "spelled" would be more common
than "spelt."  "Grey" is more British than "gray," but here we use them
interchangeably.  Not right or wrong, just different.

Yes, I know, this has nothing to do with pianos.  Sorry, but you started
it!  <G>

Yours for greater international understanding,
Clyde Hollinger
