This thread reminds me of one of my favorite family stories. My sister is a middle school Language Arts teacher. (I think Language Arts is the politically correct designation for English.) She has banned the use of spell checkers for her students on the grounds that they must learn to spell before they begin using the productivity tool. Much like learning multiplication tables before using a calculator.
Anyway ... the ban on spell checkers was precipitated by the receipt of a report from one of her students. The treatise about three adventurers was entitled "The Tree Exploders". Auto correction is pretty dangerous if you don't read the results.
