I was typing a document today and I noticed that the same word I always had trouble with in school has come back to haunt me 10 *cough* hears later!!

'Seperate' as opposed to 'Separate'! :eek:

Chuck Stone

Newaglish

I used to always spell equiptment with a silent T in the middle. I have no idea where I picked that up.

That's a good one. I don't like coffee though. You could say it's not my cup of tea.

I was spelling "apparently" wrong for about ten years.
