>>Good question. This is why in tennis the score is "15 All". Maybe they should adapt it to other sports :)

>Although, watching the Wimbledon tournament, I've heard them say "15 each". And considering the odd scoring used in Tennis, I doubt anybody wants to use tennis as a role model. Why doesn't tennis just count 0, 1, 2, 3 like normal humans instead of love, 15, 30, 40? There's probably a historical story to it, but there is also such a thing as evolution.

Speaking of eaches... I'm still amused by "each" as a unit of measure. When the price is "$5/ea", how do I say "give me two eaches of..."? There's such a word in German, "St[u umlaut]ck", we say "komad" (a piece), but in English I have no clue, have to manage with "two of those". I don't know what to say when the unit of measure is a unit of one.
