Another example of British vs American English humor. How about some unique Aussie English humor. (or should that be humour?).
I'm not sure that pun really fits as British vs American. I was trying to think of other elemental puns, but most elemental names are pretty lame. After all, coming up with a pun using Rutherfordium or Vanadium is pretty difficult.
1603, of course, is the year that Queen Elizabeth died (Elizabeth I that is).
Also, 1603 is a well known Windows installation error code when using the Installer Service - meaning that a fatal error occurred but I'm not telling you what!
That's about the most perfect Post Race post yet. It's informative, not related to any other topic...ever, and came totally out of nowhere.
1603 is, of course, the current page number in Post Race. :duck:Quote:

I disagree. There are on average 181 pennies (1982 to present stampings) per pound. So for 8.8 pounds it would be 1,592 pennies.Quote:

And 1592 isn't as special as 2kaud presented. It's not a Windows error number of significant value, although the year 1592 did contain the ultimate Pi Day....
George Villiers was born that year!Quote:

Its 100 years after Columbus discovered America. So its very special. Plus that day is coming up in 3 more days :DQuote:

Did you test their mettle? Their metal mettle matters mightily, maybe.
Maybe
or maybe not........Quote:

That leaves 9998 other possibilities.
