I'm going to start a campaign to put the "ph" back into sulphur.

and the u back into colour.

er - it's still there...

"sulfur" is the new official english scientific spelling since a decade
or two ago - apparently.


I'm not sure such merkanisms are official, but more likely the fault of
MS Word.

The names are decided by international comities.
The name for sulfur doesn't have ph in it any more, but that metal is
spelt aluminium now.
