Any reason for aesthetics being spelled without the "a?" ColinR 19:59, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

Simple: the "A" spelling is a British spelling. It's like the difference between "etiology" and "aetiology."
Here, we follow Noah Webster, not the OED.--TerryH 20:10, 12 March 2007 (EDT)
Webster's, at least the online version, uses aesthetic, as do most other dictionaries. ColinR 21:00, 12 March 2007 (EDT)
