truepenny: artist's rendering of Sidneyia inexpectans (egon)

Word believes that "although" is hyphenated "alt-hough." And due to the UTTER IDIOCY of their quote-unquote "manual" hyphenation feature, you cannot correct it.

Although (ha), even that isn't as bad as what it did to Coleridge. There will be one change in the text of "White Charles," as the only way to prevent Word from hyphenating it "Co-leridge"--drawing a discreet curtain over the interim carnage--was to add in "Samuel Taylor," to get "Coleridge" away from the end of the line.

Yikes! You can turn all their auto correction "features" off if you want.

Yes, and I always do.

Except in this instance, when I actually need full justification and, therefore, hyphenation.
