Spelling Checkers
By Walt Carroll

In reply 2 spell checkers...

my wife is an information technology injuneer for hewlett packard.
(i t e, or in laymans terms, a computer programmer).  she is also blind.
she uses a voice synthesizer for her work and 2 reed her mail.  i always
rite 2 her like this becuz the voice doesnt no the difference and to
lissen 2 it u wood'nt no that the spelling iz all rong.  i cood rite 2
her normally but she finds it humorous to c how i always come up with
different ways fool the synthesizer.

iz ther a moral?  i dont no.  i spose you cood say that computers r not
always rite.

later, Walt

 [ I can see (but not hear) that you are experienced at this, and I'm
 [ impressed with the capabilities of the voice synthesizer.  Thanks
 [ for the interesting commentary, Walt.  -- Robbie
