As one British professor admonished to me once: "Because, in the
civilised world, that spelling is entirely correct!" :-)"

Interesting, I guess that the Oxford English Dictionary is uncivilized
then (it does not permit this variation in spelling, let alone, as some
British spellers would demand, allow only the "s" spelling).

Seriously, to Norm's point, is it worth a warning in GNAT? I thhink so
(is is easy to do).
