Spell checker is a wonderful tool. However, if you misspell a word in a way that creates another legitimate word, spell checker will not catch the error for you.
Here is a good typo example from the wedding column in The Birmingham News for Sunday, May 31:
Lydia's four-tired, light pink wedding cake was decorated in white fleur de lis.
I would imagine the columnist meant to write "four-tiered." TIRE is a word, and TIER is a word, but my guess is this wedding cake had four tiers rather than four tires. Spell checker would not point out the error.
REMEMBER: After running spell checker, always proofread again with your brain in gear!
