And U.S. English is evolving the fastest.  We are more than 
happy to take words from anyone's language and make it our 
own.  We're economical as well.  Look at all the U's we've 
dropped, like in "color" as opposed to "colour", etc.

We've even had movements to change to a phonetic form of 
spelling - "kat" for "cat".  Think of what that would do to 
your spell checkers!  If you look at old writing from 200 
years ago, great people had very bad spelling.  Sometimes in 
the same document they would spell a word several different 
ways.
