I always thought it was deep seeded...like seeded deeply. I've only recently found out that it's deep seated. Geez.
Upon just googling though, I found a few articles. The funniest one was titled: Deep-Seeded Ignorance...and within that article it explains the difference between seeded and seated...but then there's this line in the article:
"The established phrase is "deep-seated", which is listed in any good dictionary and has 590,000 Google hits, while "deep-seeded" is not listed in any dictionary (at least as far as I've checked), and has only 24,800 Google hists, so that the public vote is 96% for seated, 4% for seeded."
WTF is a hist? I know, I'm being silly & petty and it's probably just a typo...but if you are gonna bag on someone for their language skills (or lack there of)...dontcha think you'd proof that shit?
