I recently read a killer book about Syd Barrett, and it was so good I
decided to scan and OCR it (in Windows, in MSWord).
Spell checking an GB-english document using American-englsih spell
checker is awful. Hundreds and hundreds of spelling errors, and grammar
errors. I didn't realize how different our languages actually are until
I ran a spell checker.
