RE: New poll question? (Was Re: Pinsky poem in the Atlantic "Jar of Pens")

The most common for me is during meetings while someone is writing on the white board, they will turn to me and say: "How do you spell. . .?"

When I used to say, "gee, I don't know", they would all look at me with horror! Now, I just make up a spelling if I don't know it. I think there is a large group of engineers spelling certain words incorrectly because they believed me, lol.
