Jason--
I suspect it's some kind of bug in the lexicon. The old Tyler had one
of those, something like RHEX. If I ever get a rack including AHIKR I'll try
to play it and see if I get the message that it's not in the dictionary. I'll
let ya know.
Stu
(My apologies for sending this to the whole group, but, like Zax, I had
no choice, cuz my stupid address book doesn't have Jason.s name.
