the funny thing is that there are movements that  fight for a 
revision of written english since it has been frozen for such a 
long time that the pronunciation is completely out of sync with 
how it is written, which is a fairly arcane mishmash.

the lack of willingness to reform english creates a lot of 
unnecessary educational problems all over the world. meaning, 
people have to memorize pronunciation rather than deduce it from 
the spelling. i find that rather wasteful...

(you know you've won a debate when people start to focus on your 
grammar ;-)
