It is very unfortunate that this add-on maintained by "jooliaan" is so badly out of date. I don't know how to contact the author. I suggest that he synchronise the add-on with the Mozilla maintained en-US dictionary once this has been improved, see below.
But the en-US dictionary for en-US Firefox was updated 61 times since then according to https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/log/tip/extensions/spellcheck/locales/en-US/hunspell/en-US.dic
I'm working on another update which will remove 352 erroneous entries, see bug 1235506 comment #37 and #38. We're also considering removing (some of the) 6000 proper names of doubtful quality in bug 301712.
Furthermore we're planning to improve the dictionary in collaboration with SCOWL by recovering some/most of the 5670 words removed by bug 1137544 in May 2005 through a refresh from an improved SCOWL dataset, see bug 1235506 comment #39 and https://github.com/kevina/wordlist/issues/138. The next update from upstream will also include common variants (like "advisor").
