yes, to the rest of the literate folks out there, we'll continue using "spelled" instead when we wanna rag on someone elses error.
"spelt" is the past tense of "spell", but Americans use "spelled" while the British use "spelt".

It's the same with "whilst": Brits use it, while Americans use "while".

It's hard, I know, to discern sometimes what's a spelling error and what's simply an accepted variant.
