Sorry to be so casual, but it's just the Internet. Anyway, "Irregardless is an informal term commonly used in place of regardless or irrespective..." All right, I'll try to take my irregardless rate from 50% of posts down to less than 10%. D'accord? D'accord! Suggestion noted.

That's the accurate claim, but that's not the claim made by the Mayor's office and SFO. Certainly, if you can fill up an A380, then you're looking at 3% or so better mpg per seat than a filled-up Boeing 747-8, something like that. So, meh. Lufthansa looked into things and decided to get both the A380 and the 747-8, oh well... http://leehamnews.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/lha380b748.jpg Testify, Jacob.

It's more efficient than a smaller plane just like a bus at 6 mpg with 9 passengers can be more efficient than a 50-mpg Prius.

I see every other post of yours uses that non-standard word. It's nonsensical. Use "regardless". You really need to stop using “irregardless” in speech.
