Yes, disk obviously.
Otherwise the score is divided.

% gryp neighbour | wc -l
581
% gryp neighbor | wc -l
389

% gryp colour | wc -l
285
% gryp color | wc -l
1844

% gryp favour | wc -l
33
% gryp favor | wc -l
71

% gryp zeroes | wc -l
206
% gryp zeros | wc -l
391

Hmm. The neighbours win, but otherwise it is mostly American.
Since it is not overwhelmingly but only mostly American
it may be a bad idea to start "fixing" this. The patch
would be too large.
