Jerry,

happy to hear you laughing about my trivial message ... here is 
some more rediculous stuff:
I was a subscriber to VIewCamera for several years.
In their classified ads (Lens and Repro has a double sided one) 
Schneider lenses frequently  show up as Schnieder - while 
Voigtländer lenses always appear as Voightlander (where is that 
"h" from??) .
You see, it is not that easy with a foreign language, istn´t it ?

BTW: same thing with Koka Kohla over here in Germany.

Bernd
