Well, L10n looks a little bit like "lion" if it helps any. If this is adopted I hope to be lionized accordingly.

... "honorificabilitudinity" is explained as, "honorableness"...




Certainly no self-respecting Klingon would be caught dead saying, "You have no honorificabilitudinity." It would be way too much hypocrisy.

I use the autocorrect feature - in both Word and Access - all the time. It saves me scads of keystrokes. My uncorrected daily work would be indecipherable to most ... here is a sample ....

sd
matf - Issue - det revs
st
constr revs
ga
/foia - Exception - Highways - ap det ql

These are index headings for a research service.
