Steve, ol buddy -- You know your music better than your geography. No Irishman, even in Ulster (Northern Ireland) wants to be called a Brit. The Orangemen are are really mad at England for trying to make peace in this ongoing tragedy. The RUC (Royal Ulster Constabulary) are the local cops. However, I commend your sense of humor. The English Language is unique. A few years ago when I was travelling in Russia, I met a young woman who had some education in England. Upon trying to establish a conversation with her, she said, "You must speak more slowly. You see, I was trained to speak English. You do not speak English". To which I could only reply, "Well, Shucks -- I'm darned sorry." <G>
