Alan - how are you so sure about th GA?

As for trans-Atlantic differences then read Bill Byrson's Mother Tongue, it discusses and explains everything! In the main it is the English English speakers who have changed (even though most of them moan about Americanisms invading our language!), American English is still pretty much the English the Pilgrim Fathers and others took with them. Bryson explains this better than that!
