*For Tiktaalik's sake, can someone also give me a definite rule about double consonants in the english language?

I'm not going to comment about the effects of shagging on the unborn (other than to note that prostaglandins in sperm can cause early labour late in pregnancy), but I notice you are asking for a rule about something in the English language.

Oh my dear, sweet, horribly misguided, Gallic chum. The English language doesn't have rules! How else can we confuse foreigners? We built an Empire on having impenetrably irregular conjugations of verbs and declensions of nouns. Otherwise people might have understood us.

Not only what Louis said, but what rules there are vary by country/region.
