When teaching IT to 11-16 year year-olds, I used to have to go through the
custom dictionary (where you put words you want in the spell checker that
aren't already there) and remove all the wrong spelling. The students were
so convinced that their spelling was right that they put any word the spell
checker flagged into the dictionary. The most frequent ones I had to remove
were bungolow, thier, Febuary and comit(ment). There were obviously others,
as I stopped teaching in 1997, but they're the ones that stick in my mind.
