Just because us Chillinoisians go along with the folks who invented the tongue; and just because the OED sez chiLLi is the preferred spelling; and just because the reason that Texicans spell it chili is that the sign writer got high on his paint thinner fumes and left an "L" out of the sign he was paionting.... all that has nothing to do with the fact that chiLLi spelt with two els is the law of the land in Illinois.
