why don't the built-in spellcheckers figure out the context and fix just these? the world would be less annoying: http://bit.ly/8AWGol

@amccurry i mean for the family and column names. i want to use the byte arrays for that because then I can just use constants. see my fork.

@plinskey i don't disagree. one of the few things i like about scala over java. type inference, closures and multi-line strings :)

I'll have to try and switch! RT @jkwatson even that is too much work. Just type the declaration and 'introduce variable'. Ctrl-alt-v.

What is the largest / best IMAX theater in the silicon valley area to see Avatar 3D?
I want to see Avatar 3D a second time and want to see it on the biggest, best screen possible but don't know which screen in the Silicon Valley / San Francisco area would be the best one.
