I wonder if some of them are American English versus Brittish English spellings?

I guess I can harass my colleagues :D

I've said it before, it's just because in Romanian we do pronounce every letter we write, and many times the words are spelled in English exactly like in Romanian, only pronounced differently. I wish my English pronunciation was as good as my spelling.

Karen!!! :eek: Brittish English! ;) ;)

Wow, I'm impressed how well some of you spell! ..... Well, it's not the end of the world if you get some of those wrong, they are difficult!

Barbara, I hadn't looked at the other one, you are really good!! :) I won't tell you what I got, but it was less that 30 points! :o

Here's the link to that one:
