I used to work with an American chap,I always thought it quite funny that he spelt tyre,tire.....:D

"Why" would you put a "Y" in "tire?"

Forgot about that one, I had a school teacher (french history/geography)that wrote in to Coca Cola as aluminum was spelled incorrectly on there can, he got a thank you letter back and that was it, and they fixed the can.
