I'm having a problem with marginrules. If the papersize is a4 they work
just fine. When I switch to letter paper, however, the rules no longer
line up with the paragraph.

The sound of a duck is a good demonstration of how different people
listen to a sound. Everywhere in Europe the sound is equal. But in
every country it is described differently: kwaak||kwaak (Netherlands),
couin||couin (French), gick||gack (German), rap||rap (Danish) and
mech||mech (Spanish). If you speak these words aloud you will notice
that in spite of the consonants the sound is really very
well described. And what about a cow, does it say boe, mboe or mmmmmm?

"Quack" goes the duck:
1. Everyone knows that a cow says "moo"! (but not a koe, une vache, ...)
2. Why in the world would anyone like to use \setpapersize[letter]?
:)
