'græm ər

I was proofing somebody’s work today and was stunned to realize that this person had spelled the word "grammar" three different ways...one of them being, of course, the way anal, dictionary-prone people (like yours truly) would opt for: grammar. But also sparsed through the text in black and white, alas, were the objectionable grammer and even fouler grammor.

I pondered this for a while. Then something I’d read not too long ago came to mind:
It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word.

Point taken. I made the necessary changes and opened the next file.
