It's a pretty commonly known fact that most American spellings, when they differ, are just simplified spelling variations...or something like that.
Originally posted by Barker

No kidding
Well, both spellings are correct, and if I start spelling it one way, I'm not going to go back and change it to the other way, so yeah.

I just find that odd as I've never heard anything like that before.
And people tend to differentiate between British and American English already as it is, because of the spelling differences, word meanings, etc.

I never called anybody stupid, so no, I didn't own myself.
But since we are on the topic of typos, the 't' in themselves and the 'e' in either should be capitalized. You forgot two periods also.
