Dave,

Well, that's a puzzler, as an ex-wife used to say. I'll copy and paste in 
the URL for you to go see for yourself. I arrived at this URL by clicking on 
the link you provided but then clicking through to what that page told me 
was now the current site. Take a look when you have a minute:

http://daisy.org/projects/amis/

Joel:

To the best of my knowledge it has always been spelled the way it is
now, and pronounced the way I said.
