The Names Page
This page is here simply to prove that I have too much time on my hands. (Note: I did this while I was at University, arsing my way to a third, instead of actually working. Ho hum.) The premise is simple: Type someone’s name into MS Word, and run it through the spell-checker and the thesaurus. The results are variable, sometimes it’s not funny, usually it’s not even that good. Newer versions of Word have better spell-checkers, and are consequently much more boring. This was done with Word 6.0.
If I’ve spelt anyone’s name wrong, I don’t care.
