Pedants' corner

Earlier this year I was shown a business letter, written by an irate plumber, whose unstable capital letters were threatening to take a firm to court for non-payment. In a wild rollercoaster of grammar and spelling, one word in particular stopped us in our tracks. In the event it was the one who was a terrible speller who deciphered what matey was talking about. I've a feeling the rest of us would otherwise still be staring at it now, trying to puzzle it out.

Is it more obvious than I think? Or did you also spend ages staring at it as if it was a Magic Eye puzzle?

"I WILL BE FORCED TO USE PROSIDIA"



It was, of course, "PROCEDURE".
