I favour British spellings more than anything else. However, I absolutely refuse to do such things as "cheque" or "skilful".

Lol, cheque. Its a check. Thats pointless confusion for no point. Maybe in old english that would be ok...

Random Trivia: Did you know that the saying O.K. comes from Thomas Jefferson? After writing a treatise he would proof read it and write 'all correct' at the top. Only at the time, there was no propper spelling, so he spelled it Oll Korrect :p
