      The word is...

      Okay, I usually try to ignore spelling and grammar mistakes, but I've seen this one so often (and the word is used so often on this forum) that I feel compelled to speak up.

      The word is "recurring". Not "reocurring" or "reacurring".

      There. I feel better now. Carry on.

      Yeah, that's a real pet peeve of mine too. Unfortunately, it's become so common, I see it in commercial advertising, newspaper articles, etc...
