Hey, did you know "relatedly" is not a word, and that you probably meant "belatedly" or "elatedly"?

It's not just Microsoft. I couldn't find that word in my Mac's dictionary.

Of course it's a word! I provided a dictionary.com link above.

Also, I am presenting my MA at PIPES in November, so I hope you'll be able to give me comments on it before then. I'll be fixing it up in the next couple of weeks and then sending it out.
