Dare I ask where the "T" is?

Also, the Bri'ish decided the adopt French spelling conventions into their language because they wanted to be ~~snobby~~ fancy, like "colour" and "theatre" -- it's a mess.

We North Americans follow the lead of patriot and genius Noah Webster who just wanted words to have sane, consistent, intuitive spelling conventions.
