Maz's confused virtuality

I don't really have a problem with the idea of 'alright' as a compound, but I've never been able to actually read it so it gets pronounced right in my head, so it's never been a spelling I've used and it makes me pause and wrinkle my nose when I come across it. Though I'm not sure how much I actually do come across it, apart from in The Damned's song 'I Feel Alright', which is a favourite track of mine and not something that could be spelt any other way...
