I got that email, bunch of questions! That one was the best one. It is because america is backwards, and altogether loopy! Our math system is just as messed up!

Good question. The English language is so complicated and confusing at times. Glad it's my first and primary language learned.

One could also wonder:
Why do they call it a building? Its already built
Why do they call it a TV set? when you only get one.
Why does the word "Lisp" have an "S" in it? isnt that kinda mean?
But to answer your question...Ummm....I dont know
