SO...why isn't "draught" pronounced "drot" instead of "draft"????

Even though I'm a Food Network addict, Paula Dean's voice works my last nerve. You might be a hillbilly, if you talk like Paula Dean!

I've always wondered about the draught thing! It makes NO sense.

And I visibly cringe, on the occasion that I hear someone refer to their caRt, as a buggy. Buggy? Really? In 2011???
