My hats off to you gentlemen, I don't use spellcheck for my written
emetications, sorry to all for any confusion I might have caused.

Touché Scott, our office is still laughing but PLEASE don't change the first
words in the RE: - lines, its the only way I can hope sort through the vast
volume of Torsen & Spider bite stuff to track the few, if any thread(s) I
can follow!

To give credit where credit's due, you obviously have a much, muCH, mUCH,
MUCH better spell checker than the one that came with my computer.  I'm
going to have to get a better dictionary! - fermata of torsen, monmania of
spellcheck, labiodental?!?? now that one almost didn't make it past the
"parental content filters and controls"

Given the mystical perambulations set forth above, I am going to go with the
theory that an electronic edition of Microsoft's "Modern Macedonian
Dictionary (& Thesaurus)" with, of course, the Ancient Greek Supplement and
3 part Latin Addendum auto-correction features fully enabled, has some how,
mysteriously, been installed either in, on or over the Torsen / Spider bite
crowds e-mail editors "standard" English dictionary versions.

Thus armed with a good, practical theory for what I can't understand, I can
now confidently and stalwartly venture forth by applying the practical
lessons painstaking culled and gleaned from the careful scrutiny of both
sides of the spider bite and torsen thread, "... This's my theory, 'n I'm
sticking to it!"

BTW, in case George Carlin hasn't already covered it, don't you find it bit
disturbing that "Spellchecking" won't pass "spellchecking" (at least on my
system.)  Course it reassuring that "torsen" isn't in there either.
