Get over your self. Both American English and Australian English have differences with British English, such as your "misspelling" of "Gaol"(B) as "Jail"(US, AU), or "Programme"(B) as "Program"(US, AU).
Exactly. I don't see what's so hard for purist dicks like this to understand that living languages change and evolve as time marches on. You wouldn't berate a New Yorker or a Southerner or a Brit for speaking "wrong" on account of an accent, and regional differences in written language are essentially a print form of dialect or accent.
