The Famous Spell Checker Poem

[Ktrek]

Keith R. A. DeCandido the Star Trek author posted this over at Trek BBS and I thought I should share it here. It's really hilarious!

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

My spell checker found nine errors without the other checkers on... maybe he just needs a better checker.

But seriously, they are working on a new program that will be able to sort out things like this by performing actual context checks.

Then again if you are using spell check to check your context, you deserve to suffer.
