Sadly, I think that within 50 years or so "tonite" is going to be considered the correct spelling. I think a lot of the "gh"s in the English language are getting dropped as time goes by. Through is becoming thru. When was the last time you went to a "drive-through?"

Why sadly? Language evolves, and becomes more efficient (note the poor comma use!). Writing should be artful or efficient, and I don't see how extra letters add anything to either one. I completely understand the h8 for Messenger-Speak, as I don't get it, but extraneous letters seem a silly artifact to me.
