    Why did you quote my post as if I made an error in it?

    In post 18# you quoted me and put an unoriginal [sic] in my quote like I misspelled a word or something. Why did you do that? An accident?

    All right, the word 'paid' was misspelled.

    From little odd controversy I learned "payed" was a real word and not a misspelling. And it DOES make sense when used in an extremely narrow spectrum.

    "Payed" has nothing to do with finances (that is "paid") but does have a common and historical use as a nautical term having to do with ropes and ship hulls.

    To pay out a rope or cable is to let out by slacking. The captain payed out additional rope for the sails. The construction works payed out the cable as he strung the line.

    And here I was going to blame the Brits for another weird English spelling, even without an extra "u".
