Restoring the word the way it always was

The past,eh?

What a place to visit from the days of Google+ social media some of us would maintain done right with control over who sees what posts  in groups you create kept apart and a still feature rich Blogger never mind a good choice of active forums.

One thing that bugged me then was limited spell checker language options as most British ones seemed to be based on the Collins dictionary and American ones always used Websters ignoring those britishers who used the OED and Canadians to which neither really work.

Even Microsoft's "Canadian" wasn't that reliable more modified American so if as at the time I was using Firefox as a browser you looked for extensions and one Google+ person in my T circle recommended a great Can-E one.

That lasted a while until the internal gubbins of Firefox underwent major changes and a host of Apps including that were banished.

Well after a long wait at the curb, it's been recompiled for modern Firefox and that has been installed into the Windows machine while I figure out the language options on the Chromebook and reset that so Encyclopedia isn't underlined and auto corrected out of existence as I ride out on new tires.
