Hi:

Technical Communication discussion lists often have discussions on US versus
UK English.

Has any reader/user actually faced a problem that was caused because they
did not understand a documented term, purely because of the dialect (UK/US
English) used?

I'd like to know whether this is a real issue, or it belongs out there
somewhere with font fondling (did Andrew Plato coin this phrase?).
