reading between the lines of these obscure remarks,
I have to assume that you (UK citizens) think that any different spelling of a word in another country is "wrong." If so, we don't see it that way.

There's a catalog of differences
we shouldn't over analyze or lose our sense of humor, nor should we try to maneuver around it, we should instead find center ground

that's how I see it--but I've been scolded too often by Brits and the like for using American spellings
(not that it would change me :D)

Quite a lot of them make sense, and are due to deliberate spelling reforms that took root,
mostly proposed by Noah Webster, the Webster's dictionary guy. For some reason, the reforms on long, impressive-sounding technical words were generally accepted, while the reforms on ordinary short words (like getting rid of the silent e on have, live and give) weren't.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_spelling_reform Some of the differences are arbitrary, but it's difficult to find American spellings that are less rational than British ones.
