I think Ann is well over a million words.
Being Swedish she doesn't make many spelling mistakes.
  • Her English is too good, he said,
    Which clearly indicates that she is foreign.
    Whereas others are instructed in their native language
    English people aren't.
    And although she may have studied with an expert
    Di'lectician and grammarian, I can tell that she was born
    Hungarian!

Orbital's Cygnus freighter reaches International Space Station
By Jonathan Amos, BBC News, 29 September 2013

<<The new Cygnus freighter has arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) carrying about 700kg (1,500lb) of food and other supplies. Astronauts on the platform reached out with a robotic arm and grabbed the vessel at 11:00 GMT. Cygnus has arrived at the station a week later than planned after an initial attempt last Sunday encountered software problems. This left the freighter unable to establish the proper communications and navigation links with the space station. Cygnus was commanded to loiter more than 2,000km from the ISS while engineers developed, tested and uploaded a patch. The arrival mid-week of a new crew at the station then pushed the second berthing attempt back even further. Astronauts will wait a day before entering the freighter to start removing its stores. The current schedule calls for Cygnus to stay at the platform for about a month, after which it will be sent into a destructive dive into the atmosphere.>>
Wonderboy can stay for a month, after which...
