Should we change the spelling to "Analog" to use American spelling rules? American English tends to distinguish between the two spellings, reserving "analogue" to mean "something which is like something else" (as in, the modern analogue of X), but not "something which an analogy is drawn from" (as in, "In an analogy, the analog corresponds to the target.") or "not digital; ranging continuously between values" (as in, "analog signal.") Meanwhile, British English tends to spell all of them as "analogue." Haha, it doesn't really matter.
