Oh, you mean like the time I wrote a paper about relative plate motions for a geology class in college, and the dang spell-checker changed every "subduction zone" to "seduction zone" and "orogeny" to "erogeny" (which I failed to notice)? (Gives a new meaning to "thrust fault!")

My prof got a good laugh out of that.
