Okay, so why is "an historic" grammatically correct?
It isn't, that's why.
"A historic" is more common in online writing, but both usages are sufficiently common to be considered correct.

I thought they got rid of that once they offered faction changes, adn the ability to have both on the same servers. Ill have to make an Orc or something and test this.
Did it work?
I had the same question, and if it does work, then I just might be able to stand leveling an Alliance toon past 20

Random page citing google hits. I am overwhelmed by the weight of scientific evidence.

I guess my question would be whether the English pronounce the H in Historic like they pronounce the H in Herb. In America we would say "I have an herb garden" but in England I'm pretty sure they'd say "I have a herb garden."

its al about how you pronounce it as far as I know.
I actualy say "Heirloom" with a clear "H" f.ex.
If you pronounce it "Eirloom" then you have to use "an"
Problem is, I can't smel how somthing is pronounced :p.

I'm not sure the "h" isn't silent in some parts of America, let alone Britain. I'm pretty sure the British pronunciation is silent, though. I've heard it enough that it must be fairly common.
On a side note, this has my vote for Thread of the Week.
I know three British people (probably not enough but...) and they all pronounce herb H-erb. I asked em about heirloom and they said Air-loom. I don't know why, but maybe its the word not the spelling type?

No one that can speak properly says Hair-loom. Its Air-loom. H is silent. If people want to make stuff up, from stupidity, resistance of conformation or accent, that's fine, alot of people will follow, but that's not what it originally was.
AR-EVA-DERCHI!
