That is a legit concern. Even with my current system (talking into a dictaphone and having a secretary transcribe it) there is the danger that I will see what I meant to say, rather than what is actually there. That's why I plan to give it to a secretary to format and finalize. She'll read it over as she does, and correct any errors I missed when I read it over after dictating. Between my own read-over, spell check, and her re-read, we should catch any errors.

Mark, thanks for the report. <<...just by fast computer...>>, I trust this is a prime example of the little problems?

Dragon withdraws its registration statement, so a plausible guess is that Seagate will end up owning more than their current 38% (for better or worse): Voice recognition software developer Dragon Systems said it is withdrawing its IPO registration statement so it can negotiate a possible strategic investment. ''At this time, we believe it makes more sense to accept strategic corporate investments to accelerate our growth, and to allow us to capitalize on the huge growth potential of the speech market and result in an even more successful IPO in the future," said Dr. Janet Baker, the chief executive of Dragon Systems. Shares of Seagate Technologies (SEG: news, msgs), which owns 35 percent of Dragon, fell 3/4 to 28 1/4.
