"I shot [photographed] over 100 dogs, but some chose not to shake, so I scheduled a lot more then I needed."Presumably this was a spoken quote, so whoever wrote it down decided on the spelling. I wonder if Ms Davidson said 'then', or whether she actually said 'than'.
As I've posted previously, I believe that in the next few years the word 'then' will replace the word 'than' in this context.

I've noticed this and just thought it was a typo - by someone who relies a bit on spell checker. I don't like it and hope you are wrong about it taking over.
Mary, I think you are wrong. I think people are using the newer form of the word, and historically it may not be surprising, because in the past the two words had similar usage.
