I have to admit I use "-ize" over "-ise" because I think it 
visually looks cooler. I always felt I did something wrong by 
mixing "colour" and "-ize", but this thread has finally lifted 
this guilt off my shoulders!

"They" as singular feels weird tho, but maybe it is related to 
the archaic "thou" and "thee"? We had the same in norwegian ~60 
years ago. "De" (they) was used as singular towards strangers and 
"du" (you) was used with people you were familiar with. Then you 
could claim to be "dus" (friendly) with people you knew 
(referring to the fact that you use "du" when adressing them). 
Kinda like german "Sie".
