I just got 26 out of 27, and realized looking at the misspelled word that I hadn't read it properly. I never use the spellcheck function when I work, but do make typos.

Bixa, I did see that news item about OED phasing out the hard copy. I'm grateful that I have a copy - I joined a book club 30 or so years ago & got the condensed version - condensed as to 4 pages on very thin sheets complete with a magnifying glass. I still use it - I'm a bit of a Luddite when it comes to language. I have become accustomed to the use of access as a verb but still grind my teeth when I hear "grow your business".
