Just caught this episode and like the part about learned vs. learnt. Does this mean that Mr. Ed is the Americanized version of Mr. T?

Ha! But I'm confused: Mr. Ed is past tense, and Mr. T is present.

I pity the fool who learnt "learnt" as "learned".

Mom and her second husband loved to play scrabble. Paul liked to lay a word along beside - instead of across - another word. They were in their 80's and got tired of interrupting the game to get the dictionary so they kept a list of valid 2-letter words in the box with the board. How fitting that Martha read Mom's librarian story on the show with Grant's discussion of 2-letter words. Lovely reading, Martha. Thanks.
