Without going through the whole thread I could sympathise with one of the original complaints with the 3 word system. One being that if the person on the other end of the phone miss hears you or say you have a strong accent that is hard to decipher in a foreign Country then mistakes can easily happen. The 3 words are so unique that even getting one wrong could throw you 100 if not 1000s of miles away from the actual location. Certainly seems useful though, especially if you can text the 3 word answer.
Then you confirm the area you are in
eg limit broom flip in Notting Hill
if you get broom & flip the wrong way round you are in Delaware.
If they hear limit.broom.slip you are in Washington and nobody is going that far out of their way.
