As an addition to what I already wrote, I have done some
research. It appears that the problem is related to how these words
are saved. They are stored in RAM for a period of time and then saved
to the HD. If you reboot the computer before that is done, you could
loose these words.
In my case, I always shut down OOo before I do the computer. (The
X in the upper right corner or Alt+F4) For some reason, OOo is not
saving this information while shutting down.
