Listening to Melvin Bragg's excellent podcast on longitude,


I happened to notice the spelling of longitude.

I've always pronounced it "longditude" and was very surprised to see that I have been mistaken all this time!

Oh, that's allright, Uncle G. Around here we give you a lot of latitude in what you say.
