has he done a skit on this? didn't know

just came to mind - why the fuck don't they pronounce the H?

The French always drop H's - are americans trying to be more like the French?

i think its about half and half.. i notice english people tend to pronounce the "H" quite loudly , they usually do it with the "h" in "white" too , and that just seems strange. ,

you're right about pronouncing the H for Herbs, but can't agree about wHite. perhaps toffs do though.

it's silent "h" (urb)

Depends on the place also we don't have the same accent.
