Like all good Indians (the kind that go to school on elephants 
) I mispell the word “believe” as “beleive” from time to time. Fortunately I think I found the perfect way to remember the right way to spell it. A friend on a mailing lists had this to say when I expressed disgust at misspelling that word again:
“Remember, beLIEve has a LIE in it.”
Thanks, that should fix my brain.
