in an earlier existence I was responsible for overseeing the computerisation of accounting systems that had previously been manual or NCR operations. The first one I did highlighted the need to ensure that what you put on the input document was what you wanted to see on the finished product. One of my team left a space where there wasn't one and we suddenly had a company called The Water Loo Battery Company Ltd. After that you become paranoid, and at the next company where I did this exercise I threw something back at someone saying 'I think his name should be T Watt'. The other guy said 'No, it isn't.' And it wasn't. As one of my team said 'God, there must be Mrs and all the little T......'
