Briticisms

He tries very hard not to be parochial (is it fair to ask that a book written in Britain should label "Briticisms" as well as Americanisms? would you expect an American author to label Americanisms?) and if he sometimes fails to be omniscient, let us hope that American (and other) readers will be tempted to help.

Great story, but given the aforementioned Briticisms in "Bambi's" answers, I'm inclined to believe that the author himself is in on the hoax--i.e., fabricated the answers himself.

If you change the spellings to American, but use Briticisms without realis/zing it as anyone who natively speaks British English would, then it's not only opaque in meaning, but there's no obvious reason why it's opaque.

I'm afraid I can't resist the inevitable conclusion, so here goes: Briticisms have passed their sell-by date, and the odor (or should I say odour) is getting a bit rank.
