Simplified Spelling (Score 1)

hey, there isn't a real problem with the way we spell other than the stupid ways english handles its vowels, like : BIOS (Bee-Os) and BIOS (Bye-Os) [wish i had a phonetical character map] but i think you get the point, the word could be pronounced either way, [but i prefer Bye-Os because it is more respected tword the acronyms meaning]. but you can get rid of a few consonants as well, and about the double letters, just adopt like a greek symbol, maybe theta to replace it. anyway, i have friends from other countries and the hardest part about learning english is the spelling and pronunciation(written), so sad...
