Guilty as charged. I'll go stand in a corner with a Dunce cap on if it'll make you happier. Don't ask me why my brain refuses to remember how to spell it (I T ) correctly.

I can tell you that I was taught rote memorization in school, not phonetics. The only spelling rule I learned was "I before E except after C". I had long battles with trying to find words in the dictionary, when I couldn't spell them, and was doing my best to sound them out. I still have trouble spelling. Became a happier spelling camper when I discovered the thesaurus - I could find the word I wanted by looking up similar words.
