You are right of course. Most 'muricans spell colour as "color" and some 
even spell Winnipeg as Winnepeg and Manitoba as Manetoba, and don't even ask 
one to spell Nunavut.

Worse than the bad spelling is their abuse of Our Lake as North Dakota's 
"Love Canal" instead of dumping their cak in the M-iss-iss-ipp-i where it 
belongs... at least Boston Harbour was Tea and not foreign biota and fecal 
matter.

Otherwise the Prince of the Preachers may have been the Prince of the
