Lee,

Yes, I had originally thought that this problem was related to my own rapid
and often sloppy typing style.  I have experimented with typing these
forbidden letter combinations at various speeds and am able to reproduce
the problems even at very slow character entry.  So it's not the typist's
speed that is the problem.
