Lainee:
Bones was my first thought too! I obviously didn't have a second thought,
was typing what I was thinking. I too have a dictionary. Thanks for taking
the time.

Today was very hectic, while my home is still standing, those of some of my
friends were not so lucky. The tornado damage is absolutely horrendous.

Diana,

To answer your question per the dictionary:

orthography: 1. the art of spelling according to accepted usage 2. language
stury concerned with spelling.

My first thought was ortho...as in bones! LOL
