I'm finishing up a word-game for the table that involves a large randomly generated grid of letters. This evening as I was searching for legal words to test something, I noticed a rather remarkable string of letters right across the middle center.

Take a look at it here, I've selected the letters in question within the game.

Unfortunately Aspell does not recognize it as a word, but pretty remarkable. You can see the very simple randomizing code in the upper left, I swear there are no tricks and it's been srand()ed with the time, etc.

And to stave off the inevitable comments- the Linux version also (pretty much) builds and works, but yes, we're using Visual Studio for the Windows port.
