Reminds me of the book, Eats Shoots and Leaves<http://www.amazon.com/Eats-Shoots-Leaves-Tolerance-Punctuation/dp/1592402038/ref=ed_oe_p>, how easy it is to hear what you want to read into something that isn't meant by the author if they don't use proper punctuation. I really do wonder how often people have similar issues with a book title, or a programmer document. I had a friend write a document called "ODBC on the Fly", and so his image was the Acronym on the side of a zoomed in Fly.

I remember when I moved from one apartment to another, my wife's two uncles both police officers, were gravely concerned, took me into another room and demanded an explaination as why I had a "pick pocket guide". It didn't help at the time when I started laughing! saying, it's not a "pick pocket guide", but rather it's a "pick, pocket guide". I still wonder to this day, if they really believed it was programming reference book.
