Another basic example is a rule that rewrites sentences like "If your dog is barking tonight, I'm going to call the police" to read "I'm going to call the police if your dog is barking tonight" (not that sentence specifically - all sentences of that nature). Another example is reasonable use of synonyms - I have many rules for that.

I'm not saying it is easy - it's not. But now that I've done the work, I have it as a basis for any future project.
That sounds pretty sweet. Would you be interested in sharing/selling?
