Jan is dyslexic. This has been gone over ages ago. Hence my comment about the *pronunciation*. I've seen worse misspellings by him, and been able to figure out most of them from context. And for someone picky about the spelling, your house isn't exactly stoneproof. It's "Geordi", no "e" at the end, so there, :P (pronounced "nyeah" in this context).
