This could be a historic weekend for number of LTC showing at one time!

*an* historic...

How official is this? I know some people pronounce historic with a soft
or almost non-existent h making "an" the appropriate article. However, I
pronounce history with a hard h,

Ahem-- that's "an hard h."

    Dave!

However, happenstance hopes he would see how hard it would be, that historic
with an hard h is hardly 'old hat'.

I mean, get a cockney accent on going and it's " 'istoric"--no h to be found
at all.
