 Yeh, well I can out-nitpick Steve's post. (I am not the self-
appointed president of the League Of Obsessed Nitpickers for nothing, 
you know.)  The original poster's (don't know who, sorry) spelling of 
"Eeylops" is correct.  Steve's spelling, "Eyelops" is not.  It was 
probably just a typo on Steve's part, however, I have seen it 
mispelled the same way in other places, including on either the 
Scholastic or WB site.
