(I'm also never sure why Kansas is pronounced "Kansas" but Arkansas is pronounced "Arkansaw"?)

I looked it up. The answer is unbelievably dull and won't stay in your short term memory

Just looked it up, pretty interesting.

I agree, apart from when it's funny or logical i.e. Ace > Joker, in my worthless opinion giving sit starts grandiose names is bollocks.

(obviously if I ever add a sit to anything i'll turn this opinion on a sixpence and call it 'fiery world ender' or something. . .)
