It's a AE usage vs BE usage, isn't it? Both are correct, only BE snobs say otherwise.

there is no word like supercede

amazing how supercede is winning the race for correct spelling. People just seem to think that supercede looks right so that's what they go for. The correct spelling however is supersede. Accept it. That's what it is.
