If somebody could please inform......most of the population of my school (even those studying 20th Century History!) that there are, in fact, 50 states in the U.S.A., and not 52 ("But Alaska and Hawaii were 51 and 52..." bollocks they were), I'd be ever so grateful.
Yes, I know we're not Americans, but there's no excuse for getting something so persistently wrong!
Edit: workboresme, you'd be right. Cheers for the correction. :-)
