Easter Eggs
They're called "Easter Eggs," folks, i.e. hard to find. Sometimes micro-etched on printed-circuit boards.
Many years ago, browsing some machine code, I came across the hidden phrase, "Nosy, aren't you?"

There
arewere 5 (five) deliberate spelling mistakes on this forum. That one has taken around 2 years to be pointed out for the second time. The other one too almost 8 years to be found and the other 3 are still yet to be found.
Deliberately done because of a few spelling nazis a long time ago who picked up everyone's spelling. Strangely enough they never picked up the blatantly obvious.
As Groggy said there are still another 3 (three) somewhere.
No prize, other than the satisfaction of knowing (as a rule) most spelling nazis aren't very good at observation.
Cheers - Neil
PS By the way nazi isn't misspelled, I just refuse to give it a capitol N, that word doesn't deserve a capital only contempt.

Honour Board?
Isn't there a Typo-Finding Honour Board?
I have a vague recollection that Gumby, maybe?, put a lot of time and effort into making one, and hand carved the forum name of each typo-finder into it.
There was talk of gold leaf etc. etc.
I did do a search, and just out of interest (probably to the pen-makers) if you search for "pen" on this BB, you get no hits (that's zero, none, not any!)
Makes you think that the bosses and axe-weilders on here have something against pen-turning, dunnit?
Cheers,
Andrew
