Fun with Spell Check

[coriolis]

Open MSWord. type in someone's last name. Do not capitalize it. Click on tools and spelling/grammer. (The procedure may vary by version of Word)

Here's some results from names picked from the phone book:

moser: miser, mouser
nagle: angel
kepler: killer, yelper

This works best with shorter, slightly unusual names. Real long names probably won't find a match.
I had a lot of fun with this at work. Sometimes spell check gives a word that actually fits a person. It may take a little effort and patience. Results will vary.

Have fun.

I remember in the older version of word that I had on my old comp, Aretha Franklin would come out Urethra Franklin.
