My "Concise Oxford" says: US var. of THROUGH.

My "Webster's Ninth" says: Var. of THROUGH.

I guess if you are American, it's a judgement call or a matter of taste.
I will continue to use "through", since _I_ don't have to (;->).

I ain't convinced of the legitimacy of "thru"...

Just my $.0144 (Cdn.)

Take care, and may your dog go with you,

Gwen
