I understand your point. I had to read Chaucer and Beowulf in college and recognize the evolution of standardized orthography. But when i go to church, my pastor says in the Lord's prayer as "Our father who art in heaven..." not "Faeder ure, thu the eart on heofonum". When it's been dry outside I don't use the word 'droghte', I say 'drought'.

Yes, in times prior to the implementation of standardized education people had greater variability in their spelling. But times are different.

Bob, I'm guessing your from somewhere in Pennsylvania or the upper midwest.
