Default Re: What is the etymology of your moniker?

Well, I don't make the rules, I just nitpick.

But, having said that, I might be hoist by my own petard, as there is a conflict in this regard. I probably learned the British Version, the American Version is probably "A historian"

EDIT: And I certainly didn't use commans properly or sparingly in the above sentence!

I applaud your grammatically correct use of "an" in front of "historian"
That is not correct... unless you don't ever pronounce the "h"? Would you say "an hat" or "an house?" I sure hope not...
