Or maybe all those Canadian snowbirds living peacefully among you Arizonites have inadvertently corrected your speech. Welcome back to the British Commonwealth! ;)

They're mostly in Yuma, and they leave in the Spring, as soon as it gets "hot", 80°F.

No kidding, I was riding down an elevator in a hotel in Yuma and one Canadian was saying to his friend, "Time to head home, it's getting hot" (I was wearing a sweater ;-)

Peter Jennings, late anchor of ABC network evening news, pronounced "about" just like that. It was the *only* coloration in his speech that clued me that he had spent formative years in Canada.

I see the snowbirds in heavy winter coats & gloves, while I'm in a tee shirt & shorts. The give me the strangest looks. I have been somewhat heat intolerant, since leaving the service in the mid '70s. All the medicine I'm on these days makes it a lot worse.

Even if it did have some resale value, bombing it would still save a bundle. Even including collateral damage (say, Manhattan), it would still be a good deal.

It would tell terrorist that we are serious.
