Gee I must be up to date. Have a young nephew currently nominating for=
pre-selection for
local government elections. For those who haven't seen it, my=
recommendation to him was to quickly get a copy of bullfighter installed,=
from http://www.fightthebull.com/bullfighter.asp.
Installs itself into Word as a plugin and comes with some Flesch index=
features . You can add your own naughty weasel words to its dictionary,=
and it gives you a pretty frank assessment of what it thinks of the=
nonsense you just wrote. Actually looks like a useful and series tool to=
me -- but can we ensure that every manager on the system wakes up tomorrow=
morning to find this tool built into his/her Word ap ?
