Canadians are weird.

I always laughed when Dr. Rodney McKay on Stargate: Atlantis would call a zero point module a ZedPM. Sounds like a nighttime drug.

[color="#000000"]actually i think Varg has completely answered the question correctly.

it just sounds so much cooler. like with motorbikes and cars model numbers etc
like with this bike, the Kawasaki Z1000.

its cooler in canada because it is a ZED ONETHOUSAND. whereas in the states it just sounds like a poofy european bike, "zee onetowsand" ja?[/color]

Ooh, that was a good point. ZZ Top may retain their nonstandard usage.
