[sdiy] (slightly OT?) Analog vs. Analogue - opinions needed

[Mark Olson]

I am of the opinion that since you are "based in the UK" you should  
use the vernacular and keep the ue.

Although the American spelling is arguably infinitesimally "greener",  
owing to economy of means (electrons, ink, keystrokes, etc.)

Whichever you choose, mention the matter to whoever designs the Web  
site, they will know how to optimize the HTML so either spelling in a  
search will retrieve the page.
