I too have met this similar fate. It is very frustrating. The section of my brain dealing with spelling is fermenting. I am constantly asking my daughter how to spell words... I am asking a 15 year old how to spell. Good Christ help me.

"Spelling bee," not "Spelling B." I'm sorry; I'm sorry; I couldn't resist.

For what it's worth, I took physics in high school and can't remember a darn thing about it now. Or calculus. And I remember liking calculus, too! Sigh...
