The subject of my letter was a real estate matter and the text contained the term "demised premises". Thankfully, I DID proofread before signing and mailing the letter wherein WP had CORRECTED my typo of the word "premises" and automatically (without prompting me)changed it to read "demised penises". You can sure, that my head would've been drooping low had I not caught THAT one!

Who said learning could never be fun? Well, can we not publish a book entitled: "How to Become a Prolific Proofreader Without Really Trial" (without really trying) :) (My spell checker didn't find anything wrong with that.)
