    The trouble with a lot of these built-in and online spell checkers is that they auto-correct your input into some strange trans-atlantic form of, what shall we say, english.

    Not quite the type good old Elizabeth II speaks.

    Just saying....

    Apropos the Queen... I recently read of a British playwright who mentioned that his online spell checker changed the Gershwin opera "Porgy and Bess" to "Corgi and Beth".

    You can have everything, and still not have enough.
    I'd give it all up, for just a little more.
