In Response To: Re: RED Volunteers: 3 (Ernie)

: The various hypothesis' I've come across have suggested: - * Inter
: dimensional beings of chaos, perhaps let in during early Jjaro experiments
: with the universes superstructure (early attempts to escape the physical
: reality of the universe),

Hmm, this sounds vaguely familiar (an inside joke between Blayne and myself).

Question - is there a reason you use the word "an" before words beginning with consonants? The only exception to the rule that I'm aware of (and that is often missed by most folks) is in front of the consonant "h", as in "an historian". It's use in front of the vowel "u" sounds strage, as in "an universal", but it doesn't violate the rules. Seriously, is there a purpose for someone who otherwise writes extremely well to violate this rule, or am I just being a nit-picker. It just doesn't fit with your style of writing.
