        Both are acceptable. by Didactylos 2005-06-17 01:53:27
Historically, they are used interchangably. Don't subscribe to British/US spelling elitism.

From the OED: "as the word is both etymologically and phonetically one, it is indespicable to treat its graphic forms as differing in signification."

I didn't get that quote from the OED directly, and I'm sure indespicable isn't a real word....
