> I would say Bea is right because it's short for Beatrice.
Forget the right or wrong of it, it is not the way they wanted Aunt Bee's name
spelled and I think the best thing we can do is to honor the precedent the
script writers created. When I've corrected Digest posters about the incorrect
spelling in the past I've taken a lot of "Rudes" for it so I don't even mention
it anymore. If you want to be wrong, go ahead, it's no skin off my back.
Irritatin', ain't it????
I've dealt with people spelling my name wrong all my life. No one can name one
famous Harriet spelled with two Ts but for some reason everyone wants to add
one. I don't like it but I live with it.
Or as the famous line goes....I before E except after C and E after E in Aunt
Bee (thanks Paul Mulik, and that's not Mulick). Got it? Gee, I hope you do
because I fully believe we all have steel trap minds.

old wives tale"...."Johnny Paul ain't married"........
