I suppose it could be worse. Imagine if they all tried to sound like Southern California teenage surfer boys and valley girls. (Shudder!)

Cybersnark:
It depends who's Folk law you perscribe to. Silver can be aligned to the moon, but some say the Human soul which is why it kills supernatural creatures.

Incidentally Silver killing Werewolves isn't true folk law, it was first introduced in some film in the 1940's.

I'd go... but I think it's a crater now, innit?

"But you sleep like a ghost with me
It's as simple as that
So tell me I'm mad
Roll me up and breathe me in
Come to my madness
My opium den
Come to my madness
Make sense of it again."

Yeah, but that's like saying "At least they sound like they come from somewhere in Europe!"

So what if the German sounded French? Close enough!!

Not really. People throughout Europe have wildly different national idetic accents, languages and culture, where as the US is one nation with one national language and no more regional variation in accent than anyother nation.

The US doesn't have a national language.

Really. English isn't the "official" language of the US. Not officially.
