- Heck, I have _evidence_ of a similar story.
-
- See, there's this pornographic book I have (called _Mindy's Orgy_)
- which, on first reading, seemss very strange. If one reads it
- carefully, the reason becomes clear: It was originally about a male,
- but someone used a search-and-replace to make it about a female.
-
- They didn't search-and-replace very well. They keep referring to
- various characters by the wrong pronoun, mentioning inappropriate
- genitalia . . .
