Is there any known difference?

I'm curious, have you used this in scripts from inside applications via a script menu? In those cases I think the ("me") becomes a reference to the application. If the application has TIDs, like Quark or HyperCard, you may get an unexpected result. (Although since the terminology is not identical it may still work). Have you run it within Smile?

Well, I did. In Smile, if one uses "text item delimiters" instead of "AppleScript's text item delimiters" one gets unexpected results.
