Spellcheck doesn’t work too well with names

Yes, yes, it’s one thing to go after big professional publishers, but it’s cheap to go after some little guy trying to exploit the public domain and the creative commons for their imperfections.
What can I say, I’m cheap.
And thus I’ll point out that Mr. Schultz-with-a-T has popped up once again in the title of a book, this time Fifteen From Minnesota Who Changed the World: Bob Dylan, Garrison Keillor, Charles Schultz, Winona Ryder and More, a print-on-demand book made up of Wikipedia articles. These guys may want to look things up when they write their titles, but I don’t count on them to have the proper reference. After all, any publisher that claims “books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge” apparently doesn’t even have the lexicon which would let them know what “lexicon” means…
