"Sha" doesn't sound like Shakespeare or Shatner so I don't see the issue here The a in "sha" is certainly a closer phoneme to the a in Shatner than to the one in Shakespeare, and perhaps more importantly we as English-speakers think of it as different type of "short a" even though it's not one. I think "William Sh" would have been more fair. That said I voted Shakespeare and am kinda floored I'm in such a small minority. Shatner's just not nearly as relevant to me. --- The RPG Duelling League: www.rpgdl.com An unparalleled source for RPG information and discussion <cite>NeoElfboy posted [p:892932171] in William Sh...
