What's amazing about this is that it's not like the 't' at the end is silent! The word is spelled exactly as it's said!
Have you done a posting on "an historic"? This is my latest pet peeve. I can't figure out when that changed, or why...
I think this is another example of people not reading enough: if you see the word written down, you know there's a T at the end. If you've only heard it, it's possible to miss that. It's the same reason people mix up "then" and "than."
And don't get me started on "an historic" ...
