Stein/ Stain

Recently I saw on reddit, the Berenstein Bears Theory. Basically the idea is that at some point everybody was transported to an alternate universe, where Berenstein is spelled Berenstain. Everybody seems to remember it being stein, but every book/picture now says stain.
I for one, remember it to be stein, and my question is for you. How do you remember it being spelled?
Look with your eyes

Re: Stein/ Stain

People "remember" it differently because no one bothered to remember the exact spelling and you see infinitely more -stein names than -stain.

Re: Stein/ Stain

I've never seen it spelt with "stain"

To me it was always "stein"

A lot of the image results are funny.

This might be true for some people, but certainly not everybody. People learned to read with these books, they learned pronunciation of letters from these books. They had to focus as hard as they had ever focused while learning to read. Parallel universe all the way.
