I hated these differences when I first moved here! I knew some of them, but I used to fail English papers because of my "awful spelling" (when I was just spelling the UK way, which as a Canadian is the staple to me).
It still seems to me that most of the "new" spellings are lazy, though. I will admit many are more phonetically correct to American accents, but still. Thru will never be accepted by me, it's through! THOUGH!It's only 3 more letters u_u; come on nowwww
