What is Gaudere's Law?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I’ve seen a few references around the boards to something called “Gaudere’s Law”. From the context in which it was used, I think it has something to do with grammar and/or spelling. I know that it predates my time on the board (as does the “Cool Band Name Thread” thing, and many other in-jokes), but what I would like to know is just what “Gaudere’s Law” is, and what are the penalties for flagrant violations of that law. Thanks! :slight_smile:
