Well, I don't usually like filling out polls...unless they're language-related polls. Does that still count?

I've assumed it stems from the French origin of "history" (well, French origin in English)? I've always wondered why it's carried over when the "h" is obviously pronounced in English now, regardless of where you're from (except for small regional pronunciation differences). "An History" sounds so awkward to me, in contrast with the little "r" sound between vowels that UK speakers throw in, which sounds quite pleasant.
