Who can say say what is in the heart of the speaker or writer other than by
measuring the context in which the word is used?  All who speak or write of
"voodoo" do not intend to show contempt and those who use the term, "vodou"
IMHO, do not alway show respect.  IMHO, the spelling will not change until
those who educate our children in the public schools are themselves
educated.
