    Even my spell checker hic-cupped on it.

    Where did I find it, first Google hit?
    The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language!

    I am now adding it to my everyday vocabulary., as I have also added whilst and other useful verbiage.
    Other North Americans, think I talk funny. (except mister_e)

    Thanks,

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Adam - Start by junking Websters dictionary (together with all his miss-spellings). I always harboured the thought that the good folks of New England were ready to adopt the Queens English proper and rejoin the Commonwealth. Perhaps that was the real reason for the Queens reconnoiter last week...

    Oh, that explains why the Queen visited.
    When I heard she was coming to America, I started hiding all the tea!
    Thought it was a tax collection expedition.

    It really is nice to see all the different spellings and word uses in this international forum. Not just the misspellings, which are fun too. The phrases that are very close to our local vernacular, remind us where we come from.

    BTW - The spelling differences are because, we shaved letters out of the Queens English, so we could recycle them into new words! (less code space too)
    Consider my Webster’s dictionary junked.

    Cheers,
