whatever gets you through the day...

So I'm converting a poorly faxed legal contract via OCR so our legal team can edit it. The OCR software is trying very hard, but occasionally it gets something so wrong it becomes so very right. One example is the word "WORK" -- it's reading it as the word "WORD".

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all payments due hereunder are conditioned upon OUR CLIENT’s written acceptance of the WORD.

Well, hallelujah!!

I think you should keep it that way, and in fact, replace every incidence of "work" with "word," just to keep it all religious. You gotta have some fun somehow, right?

I was thinking that. Alas, D will proof me and not get the joke. Probably earnestly mark each and every occurance of the WORD. Put a cute little "global: change WORD to WORK"

Sigh!
