BAOM, I wasn't making fun of the mis-spelling. The "i" is next to the "u" on the keyboard. It is fun sometimes how a typo comes out as good as a thought out joke. I am a bad two finger typer. I usually have to fix several typos before I click the Submit button.
I really depend on spell check due to my poor typing skills, but in this case the word was not spelled wrong, it was just not the intended word. Although sometimes things just turn to that anyway. Typing poorly is caused by old fingers and other old parts also.
i usually run it once through spell check and the send it on it's way without really proofing it.

Lets see now, Arthritis in hands (ex-carpenter), age, screen, and keyboard are in different planes of vision (bi-focals), continuous brain farts, and being a terminal klutz too. Yep, I can understand the typing issues.

<ctrl> + (control plus) a few times and you won't need your glasses, or have to peer through bifocals. It helps to have a bigger monitor when you do that.

You can also use the google toolbar if you use IE, it has a spell check button, and autofill to automaticaly fill in forms (name, adress etc)
