Kind of like arguing whether a hood covers the engine or your head, isn't it
?
Even though they are both commonly known as 'English', we in the US speak
and write in a different language than those in the UK. "Whiskey" is
correct in American English, just as "whisky" is correct in whatever it is
they speak over there ... and neither one is properly capitalized unless
it's at the beginning of a sentence.
Next you'll be wanting me to call it uisge beatha. (Ok, ok, now someone can
lecture me on whether Gaelic capitalizes it's nouns or not :)
