If you write your lover a note saying "I dream of having my hands around your waist" be careful of the spelling. Bob Stone P.S. As the disgruntled sewage treatment plant operator said, "Waste is a terrible thing to mind". ________________________________ From: HAPS-L-owner@xxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Elizabeth E Hodgson Sent: Thu 3/1/2007 5:19 PM To: HAPS-L@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [HAPS-L] ADA Testing For spelling, I guess I'm a bit of a "witch". I require correct spelling from everyone. I have given examples of phonetically identical words that mean completely different things (best for my example is ilium and ileum) to the advising office that handles this. I haven't had a problem yet.
