    whenever they spell anything, I look it up because 99% of the time the dictator has spelled whatever they are trying to spell INCORRECTLY....it's a general rule of thumb for most MTs to do this - look up anything a dictator spells.........because we ALL know this about the dictators after 25+ years..........for some of us....in this biz.

    if an MD/dictator spells ANYTHING, it's a RED FLAG to look that spelling up because 95 percent of the time they misspelled whatever they were trying to spell.  MDs were not great in grammar and/or spelling (for the most part) - they were great in other areas.  *lol*
