We might as well have some fun, huh?

Difference between proper English the American English. Same principle for color vs colour and Aluminium vs aluminum.

Aluminum is the correct version according to science, only the Brits pervert the word. Aus four suupeurfluuous vouweuls weu Aumeuriucauns diud auwauy wiuth theum four au reuausoun.

That's not how it works. People have to use the word and THEN the definition changes

No that's not how it works, using the wrong word only makes you look ignorant to the facts and it would never change the definition, INSISTING on knowingly using the wrong word only makes you look dumb, your choice however.

Do you mean that literally? Or literally?

And just why is this thread not a poll.....I would have liked to see how it tuns out.

I don't care what the book's say , to me Mold is green stuff that grows on old bread and cheese.

Mould is the thing I use to cast boolits with... The Lyman manual was my first instructions in 1967 and they were called moulds . NOE refers to them as moulds . So I'm a mould person.

I too first think of green nasty looking stuff growing bread, etc when I see the word mold, mould however leaves no doubt as to what it is and I automatically picture,,,well a mould.

Has anyone else noticed that spell check flags "mould" as a misspelling?

I'll just refer to mine as projectile forms, seems less complicated. I've always pondered the question after a few adult bevvy's is it " the dog in lead" or "the dog is in lead" (probably fatal) or the dog in leed (maybe not even here perhaps some where else overseas) So as you can see its not just mold mould or moulde its much more than that.

The most important thing is that we can communicate our ideas and thoughts. On this forum I think everyone is talking about boolit molds or moulds. What difference does it make. This is not a forum for bread bakers or cheese makers. We are boolit makers and that is what counts. Putting in or leaving out a “u” is far less important than putting in a little more tin or leaving it out.

I started this thread to be interesting, but never thought it would become so controversial. The most important thing is we all enjoy what we are doing and the boolit doesn’t know how to spell.

Mold or Mould?? Yes it is! Both are correct! Matter of personal choice.
