Once again I'm going to flame you Yanks for your misspellings. Even if we
forget that harbour is the correct spelling it is particularly annoying
that you misspell proper names. If a street is called "Harbour Pointe" then
it is called "Harbour Pointe". What about Fenix, Arizona? In fact I would go
as far as to suggest that Germany should be called Deutschland (sp?) .
