:::No, there are many ways to spell words in English - just ask any Canadian or Australian if you don't like how we Yanks do. But I assume they're all idiots as well?  
 :::Oh, I'm bullying you? Please re-read your first response to me and tell me how I'm being so mean to you. As I said, if you think having the option to spell words as Americans (or Canadians, Australians, or anyone else who doesn't reside in the British Isles) want is outrageous, you have no business here. Or anywhere else you have to interact with all us foreigners.
