Well, that can't be quite as bad as opening up a major text book you
worked on (not as primary author but still....) and finding your name
written as ROBERT when, in fact, it should be very obvious to everyone
(particularly your own kids) that you are really ROBERTA.

(After I got over being upset, I thought it was funny.  The publishing
company was totally embarrassed.  And I had to keep reminding myself
that the students wouldn't know the difference anyway.)

Roberta M. Meehan, PhD  (that's robertA -- with an A on the end)
