    I thought it was interesting that I noticed this article appeared on the Optus site and they gave credit to the Huffington Post site.

    I find it interesting how the same article is reprinted across the world. The marvels of modern technology. Even more marvellous just how easy it is for us to know.

    Also of interest is the Huffington Post article had 17 words. I decided to investigate. The word not included in the Australian article was 'restaurateur'.

    For me what also caught me attention was the secondary spelling variations used in the article for misspelled and spelled. The preferred spelling in Australia is misspelt and spelt.
